## What this PR does
Backport of #4828 to `release-1.6`.
PR lane on this line runs on Talos containers since the backport of
#4020, but `e2e-tag.yaml` (the rc gate that `tags.yaml` calls for every
rc from `release-1.6`) and `nightly.yaml` still boot QEMU guests. Every
rc tag run here since v1.6.2-rc.1 is red. v1.6.4-rc.1 failed with
kubernetes-latest and kubernetes-previous spending about 32 minutes each
at node-join deadline
(https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack/actions/runs/36124680874), while
the same 41 suites passed on container lane in the v1.6.4 promotion PR,
in a 93 minute job
(https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack/actions/runs/36383277279).
e2e plumbing on `release-1.6` diverged from `main` after #4020, so the
cherry-pick of the first commit has conflicts resolved against this
branch, and there is one prerequisite commit:
- `e2e-tag.yaml` and `nightly.yaml` get the same host module step,
`prepare-env-container`, endpoint and storage class env and two-part
teardown as `pull-requests.yaml` here. `e2e-tag.yaml` still requires the
release to carry its nocloud disk but doesn't download it anymore, and a
dispatch against a tag cut before container lane (v1.6.3 and older)
fails early and says to dispatch with `--ref <tag>`.
- nightly moves to 32-vCPU runner, because `hack/e2e-container-up.sh`
refuses a 24-vCPU host (`main` did the same earlier in db2ddfab2).
Tests: `platform-packages_test.bats` checks container lane env on all
three lanes, `promote-gate-contract.bats` covers the new guard (on
`main` it lives in `collect-images_test.bats`, there is no such file
here).
Differences from `main`: every lane keeps `timeout-minutes: 180`, the
follow-up comment fix about 215-minute budget is not included (this
branch has no such comment and no such value), fork lane wording is
dropped because there is no fork split here, docs edits cover only
paragraphs that exist on this branch.
Coverage lost on this line: DRBD and the `replicated` StorageClass,
Cozystack Talos node image with its extensions, CDI stock 600M worker
memory limit. Docs and comments that pointed at the rc run as that
coverage now say so. `nightly.yaml` runs only from `main`, so the change
there is for parity.
`tags.yaml` takes `e2e-tag.yaml` from the commit of the rc tag, so this
has to merge before v1.6.5-rc.1 is cut. If rc is cut first, dispatching
`e2e-tag.yaml` from `release-1.6` with that tag gives the same evidence.
`make bats-unit-tests` passes locally (487 ok, base has 486), but the
workflows themselves were not run yet. This stays a draft until
`e2e-tag.yaml` dispatched from this branch against v1.6.4-rc.1 is green,
I will put the run link here.

### Release note
```release-note
ci(e2e): on release-1.6, the release-tag e2e gate and nightly run on Talos containers instead of QEMU guests. DRBD, the replicated StorageClass and the Cozystack Talos node image are no longer covered by any e2e lane on this line.
