nbdkit uses about 1.1G of storage for artifacts. I have personally never looked at anything other than the artifacts of the latest failed job, so I don't believe we need to keep these around for long. This commit proposes expiring (and thus deleting) artifacts after 1 week.

If accepted I will make a similar change for libnbd.
Martin, Dan - I don't know a lot about this and I know you've looked into this area a lot more. What do you think of this change?
It definitely makes sense, similar setting is in libvirt repos, the artifacts expire after 1 day. Long time ago I was under the impression that the default is not to keep them around (bearing in mind that the latest artifact is always kept until a new pipeline runs). Now I know this applies only for successful jobs and can be turned off in settings. I think you can safely set that to any low value and all should be fine.
Thanks Martin, pushed for nbdkit here: https://gitlab.com/nbdkit/nbdkit/-/commit/4d795c422baffed72e862f6eba24d9fec7... I want to check the nbdkit pipeline still works before I make changes in the other projects.
