Benjamin Elder cdc8a9b75d ateom-microvm: upgrade cloud-hypervisor to v53 and boot directly to agent (#972)
Follow-up to #847 

cloud-hypervisor v53 ships guest clock updates:

https://github.com/cloud-hypervisor/cloud-hypervisor/releases#:~:text=Guest%20Clock%20Updates%20Across%20Snapshot/Restore%20and%20Migration

In v52, we've been booting to systemd => {chrony, journald, kata-agent}
We don't really have much use for journald, as we get logs from
containers already.
chrony however was load-bearing to re-sync the clock on resume, and
therefore systemd was load-bearing (to run chronyd + kata-agent).

We don't need chrony anymore (tested with long suspend and probing the
reported time in the actor), so we can boot directly to the agent.

This buys us some startup time, and it drops the memory floor by ~40MB.
On golden for counter demo this is ~-26%.

Reducing memory snapshot size speeds up snapshot/restore.
