Description

We should have some sort of tests we could use for built artifacts. The absence of these mean that we haven't properly validated binaries on the systems where users run them.

Today, we have integration tests that we apply to built-binaries (e.g. https://github.com/oxidecomputer/oxide.rs/blob/main/cli/tests/test_instance.rs). We should be able to re-use these on binaries that we install.

Research direction

Start with the existing integration tests in cli/tests/test_instance.rs and review how they are applied to built binaries. Determine how those tests can be reused for installed binaries across supported systems; the work is done when CI validates the built artifacts on those systems.
