Allow pointing to daily or release buildd images for LXD
Metadata
Current evaluation
Enhancement request to add runtime configuration for switching between daily and release buildd images in LXD. No maintainer response or assignee yet.
Suggested action: needs triage
Reason: The issue requests a runtime configuration option to switch between daily and release buildd images. While both remotes are defined in the code, no configuration mechanism exists. The issue has the 'Type: Enhancement' label but no maintainer response, no assignee, and only an automated Jira sync comment from 136 days ago. It needs triage to determine relevance and implementation approach.

Issue body
### What needs to get done
Add a way to configure if buildd images are pulled in from `https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/buildd/daily/` or `https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/buildd/releases/`.
This should be done in such a way that it can be set by apps with something like `snap set testcraft.provider_remote=daily`.
### Why it needs to get done
To enable testing of daily images prior to publishing.
To test 20.04 and 22.04 daily images before the CPC team publishes them in 2024 pulse 23.
