man: systemd-nspawn: Update syntax to launch an image
To access a shell on a disk image, the man page on Fedora-29 says to
run: `systemd-nspawn -M Fedora-Cloud-Base-28-1.1.x86_64.raw`. Let's
try.
List existing images:
$> machinectl list-images | awk '{print $1,$2}';
NAME TYPE
Fedora-Cloud-Base-30… raw
1 images
Now invoke `systemd-nspawn` as noted in the man page:
$> systemd-nspawn -M Fedora-Cloud-Base-30-1.2.x86_64.raw
No image for machine 'Fedora-Cloud-Base-30-1.2.x86_64.raw'.
Removing the ".raw" extension launches the image and gives a shell.
Update the man page to reflect that.
Frantisek Sumsal on #systemd (Freenode) noted the reason: "In older
versions systemd -M accepted both image-name.raw and image-name as a
valid image names, however, on Fedora 29 (systemd-239) with all the
BTRFS stuff around it accepts only -M image-name (without the
extension)"

While at it, update the fedora_{latest_version, cloud_release}
variables.
