Adds `--instance-termination-action=DELETE` to delete instance when preempted. Without this, when preemptible VM is interrupted it leaves the instance in shutdown state with disk still incurring cost. To use that flag I also had to switch to spot VM provisioning, which costs the same, have the same base behavior and a few more features. Spot VMs unlike preemptible ones do not have a maximum runtime length, so I've picked 3d max runtime as that's already used in the script as "max workflow runtime".
