CI: sanity check for desired runtime

We're still not testing runc in CI (containers#14833), and it may be weeks
or months before we can, due to criu/glibc nightmare, but one day
we'll be back on track, then later on we'll update VMs again,
and screw it up, and lose runc, and not notice, and RHEL will
break, and oh noes headless chicken again, repeat repeat.

We can do better. Use .cirrus.yml to explicitly define which
VMs should use which runtimes, and enforce it early in the
CI build step. This should never fail (uh huh) in a PR,
only in one of the update-VM PRs.
