Hi. This sequence of patches changed us from
getting our CI images for the advent calendar tests
from URLs like
 https://qemu-advcal.gitlab.io/qac-best-of-multiarch/download/day16.tar.xz
to ones like
 https://www.qemu-advent-calendar.org/2018/download/day16.tar.xz

This new site has just stopped working: download
attempts return a 503. This breaks our CI:
https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/jobs/7955655569

Should we switch back?

thanks
