Owner

The flakiness I attributed to passt on the runner was iris-ci put: each put restarts iris's network backend, which closes the stream connection to passt (and, on NAT, orphans the port forward). Provisioning does several puts. With the packages and scripts delivered over the 9p share instead (IRIS_INSTALL_VIA=share) the runner's guest on passt keeps one connection and answers ssh six times out of six. The README now says so instead of 'not reliable yet'.
