Use consistent network device names for network devices instead of
forcing the old "ethX" names from pre-2017. This ensures that
specialized network devices, such as SR-IOV devices, are easy to
recognize and configure inside a Fedora instance on a public cloud or
OpenStack cloud.

This failed a few weeks ago because the Python 3.12 rebuild was still
going and some dependencies for tracer were missing. I'm now able to
install tracer and its dependencies in rawhide and this change should be
ready to go once more.

Right now python3-dnf-plugins-extras is not rebuilt against python 3.12,
which causes composes to fail. Lets disable this for now and re-enable
it as soon as it's sorted out.

This stuff is now properly part of the cloud-init package,
so we don't need this anymore.

During the kickstart of the cloud image, NetworkManager writes an
/etc/resolv.conf that contains `nameserver 192.168.122.1`. This causes
boot delays with cloud-init since it does some early boot DNS
redirection tests before talking to the cloud's metadata service. On
some clouds/architectures, this delay is 15 seconds or more.
Truncate the /etc/resolv.conf so it can be replaced properly by
NetworkManager and cloud-init on the first boot.

VM images on POWER require a PReP partition to be able to boot.
Since we don't have a way to define this archfully for now,
let's just always create it. Losing 4MB isn't that bad, anyway...

This actually led to the filesystems being bigger.
The most recent Fedora Rawhide images were ~900MB instead of ~300MB.
Clearly, we need this to make it smaller.

Without this, there is no guarantee that BIOS would
be correctly set up if the install environment is UEFI.

Fedora Cloud is now set up so that it builds the disk with
GPT partitioning and has a specific partitioning layout so
that the resulting images are equipped to boot either with
legacy BIOS or UEFI.

This reworks the package list to add comments and remove some things
that didn't need to be explicitly removed.
- remove +systemd-udev -> already included by default
- remove -biosdevname -> not included by default
- remove -iprutils -> not included by default
- remove -uboot-tools -> not included by default
There are no packages added or removed from the built cloud image as
part of this change. Just updating the input package list to be more
meaningful.
We're no longer using legacy network scripts to bring up networking.
We're using NetworkManager and now in F33+ networkmanager will even
default to writing out new configuration as NM keyfiles in
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/. We don't need to lay down
a networking config for eth0. Either cloud-init will do that for us
or NetworkManager will default to DHCP anyway.
We also don't need to populate /etc/hosts as that will get done on
boot too with the same content we were writing there already.
This is done so that it's easy spot large packages that are not
necessary and identify packages that have grown in size too much
by diffing the image compose logs.
sed "s/rpm -qa/rpm -qa --qf '%{size}\\\\t%{name}-%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}\\\\n' |sort -rn/" -i *.ks
The "auth --useshadow --passalgo=sha512" is long default and auth option
itself has moved to authselect and is obsolete so this actually pulls
in extra dependencies. Drop it as the shadaow and sha512 are defaults.

in turn makes a ifcfg-en<something> file with this config. We don't
want to use this, we want to always use ifcfg-eth0 so it's the same
on all images. So, we remove ifcfg-en* (They are different on each
arch we make cloud images for, but en* gets them all).
Additionally we were using some old udev tricks to get eth0, but this
is error prone and already incorrect as systemd-udev has moved files
around, so instead we just switch to net.ifnames=0 on the boot line,
which should continue working.
a59dfe5 caused us a few problems:
- sed was breaking the symlink on atomic systems
- /boot/grub2/grub.cfg is not the right file on a UEFI system
- etc..
We'll solve this problem a different way by just not installing
plymouth in our systems, which is another way [1] to make sure
rhgb/quiet don't appear on your kernel command line.

Anaconda is writing an /etc/resolv.conf from the install environment.
The system should start out with an empty file, otherwise cloud-init
will try to use this information and may error:

With moving to grub2 we now need to remove the extlinux bits from the
other cloud images. They were missed in the move
Signed-off-by: Peter Robinson <pbrobinson@fedoraproject.org>
We drop the explicit grub2 as aarch64 only has grub2-efi but anaconda will
sort that out and ensure all the right bits are installed during the install
so we should get the right grub2 bootloader options for each arch OOTB.

The main reason for cloud to use extlinux is the size of deps being
pulled in by grub2-tools. This will be fixed in F-26 with the ability
to use grub2/grub2-efi without the tools package and it's deps fixing
this issue for good. There will no doubt need to be be some tweaking
required here.
We need grub2 in cloud images for non x86 as well as for the increasing
x86 cloud platforms that require the support of uEFI which extlinux
doesn't support.
