1. Build an experimental stretch template from source.
2. Clone a `debian-8` template and then modify in the cloned template `/etc/apt/sources.list` and `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/qubes-r3.list` to pull from stretch repos rather than jessie repos.

Unused packages will have to be removed or else it will conflict with the upgrade.
