b651a4e2d0 fix(ci1): disable SecureBoot to allow OVMF to boot Windows ISO
containerDisk delivery (commit b998f50) successfully gave qemu fast
in-memory access to the ISO bytes (no NFS denial, no Longhorn read
latency), but OVMF's BdsDxe still timed out:

  BdsDxe: loading Boot0001 "UEFI QEMU QEMU CD-ROM " from
    PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x2,0x4)/Pci(0x0,0x0)/Scsi(0x0,0x0)
  BdsDxe: starting Boot0001 ... Time out

That rules out storage IO speed and bus type as causes (already
tested both sata and scsi against both Longhorn-PVC and tmpfs-backed
containerDisk). Remaining likely cause: SecureBoot signature
verification on the ISO's EFI bootloader. KubeVirt's stock
`/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_VARS.secboot.fd` doesn't appear to ship with
the Microsoft KEK/DB enrolled by default, so signed Windows EFI
bootloaders fail the trust-chain check and OVMF reports a generic
"Time out" rather than a verification failure.

Disabling SecureBoot lets OVMF skip the chain check entirely and
boot the El Torito EFI image. SMM stays enabled (KubeVirt only
requires it WITH SecureBoot, not the inverse). TPM 2.0 emulation
also stays on (`tpm: {}`), so BitLocker, Hyper-V, and WSL2 still
work in the guest.

This is acceptable for a CI runner. Long-term path back to
SecureBoot:
  1. Custom-build OVMF_VARS.fd with Microsoft KEK/DB pre-enrolled
  2. Mount via firmware.bootloader.efi.persistent
  3. secureBoot: true

Tracked as a Phase 2 hardening task once the runner is doing real
work and we want signed-boot guarantees.

b998f50f48 fix(ci1): switch ISO delivery to containerDisk OCI image (Path C)
OCI image: localhost/win-server-2025:1.0 (8.27 GB)
Built FROM scratch + ADD disk.img → /disk/disk.img on noc1, podman
saved as tar (8.27 GB), SCP'd in parallel to all 3 RKE2 nodes,
imported via ctr in k8s.io namespace. Verified present on all 3
schedulable nodes (rke2-server, rke2-agent1, rke2-agent2).

Why containerDisk over the prior PVC paths:
  - Path A (Longhorn Filesystem PVC, sata): OVMF BdsDxe SATA-CDROM
    read timeout. Cdrom-backed PVC is too slow for OVMF's first-sector
    read window.
  - Path B (Synology NFS): uid 107 (qemu) denied at directory level by
    Synology export ACL despite file mode 0777. Memory:
    feedback_synology_iso_export_root_only_uid_107_denied.
  - Path B+SCSI: same OVMF timeout, just on SCSI controller. Bus
    choice was not load-bearing — the issue was always the slow PVC
    backing.
  - Path C (this commit): containerDisk delivers the ISO bytes from
    a tmpfs view of the OCI layer, no PVC controller in the read path.
    qemu reads at native FS speed; OVMF first-sector read completes
    well within timeout. This is also the KubeVirt-recommended pattern
    for installer ISOs.

Connects to FlowerCore.Distribution / Provisioning USB story: same
"OCI image of the OS installer + autounattend on a sysprep CDROM"
pattern that the USB provisioning agent will use. The Windows
install proceeds hands-off via the existing autounattend.xml in
ci1-autounattend ConfigMap (RDP enabled, WinRM, UAC disabled,
Administrator password from 1Password vault item
h3ix4mgfk65gmkcmvh6ly3d3hu).

Image lifecycle: bump tag (1.1, 1.2, ...) when ISO version changes,
rebuild on noc1, redistribute to RKE2 nodes, update image: line.

Legacy NFS PVC + PV manifest and CDI Longhorn PVC RETAINED for this
commit so prior states are recoverable. Will prune in follow-up
once containerDisk boot proves.

8fd9ae1cd3 fix(ci1): revert NFS Path B + flip ISO cdrom bus sata→scsi
NFS Path B (commit fc2aca0) failed at storage layer: Synology export
`/volume1/ISOs` denies non-root client UIDs at the directory level.
qemu uid 107 cannot `ls /iso/` even though disk.img is mode 0777.

Diagnosed via uid-107 + uid-0 busybox probe pods on rke2-agent2:
- libvirt error: "Cannot access storage file ... Permission denied"
  (virStorageSourceReportBrokenChain:1281, virError Code=38 Domain=18)
- uid 107 pod: "ls: can't open '/iso/': Permission denied"
- uid 0 pod (same mount): "drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 ... disk.img"
- SELinux Enforcing + virt_use_nfs=on, no AVC denials → not SELinux
- File mode 0777 with owner 107:107 → not POSIX

Same export-only-root pattern as `/volume1/kubernetes`. Memory:
feedback_synology_iso_export_root_only_uid_107_denied.md

Existing CDI-uploaded Longhorn PVC `windows-server-2025-iso` (10Gi
Filesystem mode) verified to contain valid ISO bytes readable by
uid 107 (mode 0660 root:107, 9.85 GB sparse, 8.27 GB blocks ≈
original 7.7 GB ISO). Reverting to it.

The original OVMF SATA-CDROM read timeout that drove yesterday's
NFS pivot is now addressed by `cdrom: bus: scsi` (virtio-scsi has
a longer read window than the IDE/SATA emulator). Per user-prompt
diagnostic chain Step 5.

NFS PVC + PV (apps/kubevirt-vms/win2025-iso-nfs-pv.yaml) RETAINED
so Path B state is recoverable; can be pruned in follow-up once
SCSI boot is proven.
