This mostly functional change. e.g. it allows us to test with freebsd 11.3 without thinking about which stable image we should use. I applied this to master. Best regards, Ilya Maximets.

CirrusCI recently introduced [1] new feature to use image families instead of bare image names for gCloud based instances. This allows us to use most recent stable builds. All the stable builds are in the same image family in gCloud and it will run instances using the most recent one. This also allows us to simply use 11.3 image instead of 11.2. There was no such ability previously, because base freebsd-11-3-release-amd64 image has issues[2] that doesn't allow CirrusCI to use it. However, later stable 11.3 images from freebsd-11-3-snap family works fine.
