[rdo-dev] [ppc64le] Spinning up Triple O container jobs

[David Moreau Simard]

Michael,

The cloud from which Duffy provides virtual machines is not publicly
available, this means we cannot leverage it with Nodepool or Zuul.

We have some tooling to request [1][2] and destroy [3][4] Duffy nodes.
Do you really need a custom image or would requesting a "vanilla"
ppc64le node from Duffy be enough ?
