Installing the llvm11 package instead of bootstrapping it from the source
tree reduces the build time by about 20 minutes.
The last freebsd/freebsd build that was tested (r366629) took 1h 21m 22s,
whereas my GitHub fork with this .cirrus.yml took 58m 6s.
We could probably further reduce time by using images that have LLVM
pre-installed: the pkg install step took 4 minutes 30s.
Since the bootstrap toolchain is still tested by Jenkins, this should not
reduce test coverage of the CI testing.

svn_head has the same content as the master or main branch (it's just
the result of a `git svn` conversion instead of svn2git).

The Cirrus-CI-provided working tree is owned by root. Leave that as is
for simplicity but build as an unprivileged user; this tests building
with an unmodifiable source tree as a side effect.
Continue running the smoke test as root for now, as it failed when run
as an unprivileged user - pkg reported "Fail to chmod
/usr/bin/.pkgtemp.lpq.dUHpEqPGJ9pq:Operation not permitted"

For some reason build+package+test time went from about 1h10 to over
1h30 (killed due to timeout prior to completion).
The reason for the increase still needs investigation.
Now that we can override the format to avoid the time spent compressing
pkgbase packages we can test `make packages` with only 5 minutes or so
added to the CI cycle time.
A future change should switch the CI smoke test to using these packages.

In review D19876 ian@ has some proposed improvements to the
tools/boot/ci-qemu-test.sh script. Start specifying the location of
OVMF.fd fetched by the Cirrus-CI build in advance of those changes.
