[Feature] Add latest OS versions to guest OS list #14265
As an MSP switching from vmware to cloudstack at the moment we would love to see the latest Linux versions within the Guest OS list by default. Currently Alma/Rocky etc. are on version 9, debian latest is 12, ubuntu latest is 24. All of them have one newer Major version not sure about other distributions.
I know we can add all these manual. But would be nice to have them in the default to have no issues wit future cloudstack updates.
Feature request to expand the default Guest OS list with newer major versions of common Linux distributions (AlmaLinux/Rocky 10, Debian 13, Ubuntu newer LTS, etc.) so admins don't need to add them manually after each release.

Needs more info
The general idea is clear, but a concrete PR would require enumerating exact distro/version/hypervisor guest-OS-mapping entries to add (per hypervisor: KVM, VMware, XenServer), which isn't specified here

💡 Notes and suggestions
The default guest OS list is defined in DB seed data (e.g. engine/schema/src/main/resources/META-INF/db/schema-* and guest_os/guest_os_hypervisor tables) — historically new OS types are added via SQL upgrade scripts per major release.
Consider asking the reporter to specify exactly which OS/version combinations they need (e.g. AlmaLinux 10, Rocky Linux 10, Ubuntu 24.04 already exists per issue text, Ubuntu 25.x, Debian 13) and for which hypervisors, to scope a concrete PR.
Related discussion in Support Debian 13 (trixie) #12374 shows there is an established process/precedent for adding a single new guest OS via a dedicated PR — this issue could be split into per-OS sub-tasks following that pattern.
