revert(ci1): back to cdrom:scsi (virtio-blk disk hit QEMU flock)

The virtio-blk disk swap (commit 84c9feb) didn't help: qemu fails to
acquire the write lock on the rootdisk PVC because the previous
launcher's qemu process didn't release it cleanly. Same family of
bug as the "stale QEMU flock" already documented in
feedback_kubevirt_iso_first_install_bootorder_and_runstrategy, but
now triggered on rke2-agent1 instead of agent2.

OVMF cdrom timeout is the real blocker and remains open:
  - ✅ Distribution pipeline (build → save → scp → ctr import on all
    3 RKE2 nodes) is proven. localhost/win-server-2025:1.0 lives in
    each node's containerd k8s.io namespace.
  - ✅ containerDisk + cdrom:scsi gets qemu domain Running (no NFS
    Permission denied, no rootdisk flock).
  - ❌ OVMF BdsDxe times out reading the SCSI cdrom regardless of
    SecureBoot setting and bus type.

Reverting the disk type to cdrom:scsi so the VM lands back on the
"qemu Running, OVMF stuck at Boot Manager" state — known-stable and
easier to attack than the QEMU-flock state we hit by trying
virtio-blk disk.

Operator decision for next architectural step (one of):
  - Custom OVMF firmware build with longer Boot0001 timeout
  - KubeVirt version bump (v1.5+ has OVMF fixes)
  - Hyper-V/VirtualBox install + export VHD to ci1
  - BIOS legacy boot (Win Server 2025 needs UEFI but install media
    has a BIOS path)
  - DataVolume HTTP datasource (CDI internalizes ISO bytes via
    different code path)
