spread tests: enable LXD build provider tests
Metadata
Current evaluation
Merged into master. Enabled LXD build provider tests by relocating setup to the early prepare phase to reduce overhead and consolidating declarations from task.yaml to spread.yaml. Approved, passed CI, and increased coverage by 0.01%.

Issue body
Move LXD setup to early prepare and do not remove at the end of each test
to avoid the setup overhead (including image download).
Additionally, move the common declarations from task.yaml to spread.yaml
for the build-providers suite.
