Docker-based packaging workflow in GitHub Actions. (#9964)

* Add a new GHA workflow for building and publishing binary packages.

This greatly simplifies the package handling code, significantly reduces
the amount of things we are running in Travis, adds better CI for package
builds for PRs, finally eliminates LXC from any of our CI, and enables
us to make further major improvements much easier.

* Migrate repo cleanup to GHA and remove dead code.

* Fix RPM package builds.

* Fix DEB installation.
