Bug Description

setup_vm --download is designed to acquire the base image to install a vm from a remote source.

It does so unconditionally, allowing one to acquire a recent base image.

This doesn't work for lxc as lxc-create does not provide a way to use an already downloaded base.

Instead, lxc-create handles it itself, handling its own cache.

Upon reflexion, I think we should remove the --download switch and implement something closer lxc:
- download is implicit if not in the cache,
- provides a way to clean the cache before --install
