I am basically converting the final image to qcow2 format to put it on openstack. I can run manually but I want to automate this process and setup a ci/cd pipeline for generating the image. since this is going to be on openstack there is no need to leave the guest additions on the image. so wanted to delete it before preparing the image for openstack
