It's not really a good idea to have the comments that explain
the test_flags in *every* test, because they can go stale and
then we either have to live with them being old or update them
all. Like, now. So let's just take 'em all out. There's always
a reference in the openQA and os-autoinst docs, and those get
updated faster.
More importantly, add the new `ignore_failure` flag to relevant
tests - all the tests that don't have the 'important' or
'fatal' flag at present. Upstream killed the 'important' flag
(making all tests 'important' by default), I got it replaced
with the 'ignore_failure' flag, we now need to explicitly mark
all modules we want the 'ignore_failure' behaviour for.
Summary:
This contains several tweaks to storage handling. It adds a
method for disk selection which all the storage tests can
share. It sets up a more extensible approach for main.pm to
run the storage tests, instead of an ever-growing forest of
'else' clauses. Finally it sets up a couple of methods for
changing partitioning schemes on the custom part screen and
uses one of them in the software RAID test; the other will
be used for other custom storage tests.
This kills the two_disks needle. I could keep it and work
it into select_disks, but it doesn't fit naturally and I
really just don't see the point of the needle. The only thing
we lose is we don't check that anaconda actually sees two
disks in the 'attach two disks, only install to one' test
(that's server_sata_multi), but the other multi-disk tests
will serve to catch that case failing for some reason.
What I actually intended to do was add some more tests for
different custom part storage types, but it seemed a good
idea to do some of this cleanup so that can be implemented
efficiently. I'll have followups for that.
Test Plan:
Run all tests and ensure they work exactly as
before (not just that they still pass, but that the correct
test steps are actually scheduled in each case.)
