Description

The user "ubuntu" and pathname "/home/ubuntu" are hardcoded in several places in the teuthology tree which makes it impossible to run as a user other than "ubuntu".

It is possible to workaround some of this but it would be more robust if the "ubuntu" username were made to be a global configuration variable or something easier to change.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Search the teuthology tree for the hardcoded "ubuntu" username and "/home/ubuntu" pathname, then trace how shared configuration is loaded. Done means the username and home path can be changed centrally so the suite runs as a non-ubuntu user.
