Title:
  autopkgtest-build-lxd: check for existing image early

Status in autopkgtest package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  autopkgtest-build-lxd fails if an image already exists with an error
  like

      Error: Aliases already exists: autopkgtest/ubuntu/noble/amd64

  *after* creating the new image which takes a considerable amount of
  time.

  This is wasting user time. It would be preferable to have an early
  check and recommend to the user to use 'lxc image delete' if he wishes
  to recreate the image.

  We might additionally consider adding a --force parameter allowing to
  overwrite images.
