NFS can be tricky as we can't restrict who can write where, as the only
way to do that would be to have kerberos inside CI, which we haven't.
And because some projects are pushing files directly from the duffy
nodes (and so unpredictable) and not from slaves (and even for this,
some projects are sharing the same VM, so same ip) we can't apply any IP
ACL either

Either we can use
- sshfs (reusing the pub key already known by duffy/CI env)
- cifs (and maybe creating the same user/pass as credentials as the one
already created for rsyncd on the artifacts node)

Just wild ideas :-)
