Libguestfs - Aug 2022 - [PATCH nbdkit] ci: Expire artifacts after 1 week

nbdkit uses about 1.1G of storage for artifacts.  I have personally
never looked at anything other than the artifacts of the latest failed
job, so I don't believe we need to keep these around for long.  This
commit proposes expiring (and thus deleting) artifacts after 1 week.

If accepted I will make a similar change for libnbd.

Martin, Dan - I don't know a lot about this and I know you've looked
into this area a lot more.  What do you think of this change?

Rich.

It definitely makes sense, similar setting is in libvirt repos, the artifacts
expire after 1 day.  Long time ago I was under the impression that the default
is not to keep them around (bearing in mind that the latest artifact is always
kept until a new pipeline runs).  Now I know this applies only for successful
jobs and can be turned off in settings.  I think you can safely set that to any
low value and all should be fine.
