This effectively reverts 97618193 - but had to be done manually
and adjusted to maintain support for testing side tags and for
testing multiple tasks, since those features were added since
the update ISO change.
The 'scheduler injects ISOs of packages into the tests' approach
was intended to speed things up, especially for large updates,
and it did, but it had a few drawbacks. It means restarting
older tests from the web UI doesn't work as the ISOs get garbage
collected (you have to re-schedule in this case). And it has the
rather large problem that you can now only schedule tests from
the openQA server (or at least a machine with the openQA asset
share mounted), because the package download and ISO creation
just happen wherever the scheduler is running and assume that
the openQA asset share that will be used by the tests is at
/var/lib/openqa/share in that filesystem.
That's too big of a drawback to continue with this approach, IMO,
so this reverts back to the old way of doing things, with a bit
of refactoring to clean up the flow a little, and with support
for testing side tags and multiple tasks maintained.
As a follow-up I'm going to see if I can replace
_download_packages with a much more efficient downloader script
to mitigate the time this process takes on each test, especially
for large updates.

The change to the curl commands to force HTTP/1.1 seems to have
stopped them failing, so let's try doing it for the git clones
too and see if that avoids the problem till we can work out
what is causing it.

This tweaks all pagure.io downloads to be retried a few times,
since we seem to be getting failures quite often. We use curl
for this as it has nice options for it.

I'm attempting a new approach to the update and workaround repos.
Instead of having each update test recreate them for itself -
which is slow and wastes bandwidth - the dispatcher will create
an ISO at test schedule time and pass it as ISO_2. Then the test
just mounts the ISO. This makes the necessary adjustments on the
test side.

We have had several problems where rebasing from one release to
another just doesn't work, and we have to work around it somehow.
Sometimes it's difficult or impossible to do. All we want to do
here is check the rebase mechanism itself; we don't actually want
to assert that you can rebase to any specific other release.
For update tests, we should be able to use a non-standard ref
name for the ostree we build, embed into the installer image,
and install. That should mean we can then rebase to the standard
ref name for the same release, which should be much safer than
trying to rebase to a different release. We can't do this for
the compose tests, but at least for update tests I'm hoping this
makes things more robust.

We recently started using the buildroot repo for Rawhide update
tests, but weren't including it in the image build tests. This
should include it in all the image build tests.

Instead of just redirecting it to a log file, let's tee it, so
simple errors can be read off a screenshot without bothering to
download the file. Also, let's timestamp it (via `ts` from
moreutils) so we can see which bits of it take a long time...

This is like the existing tests that build network install and
live images then install them, only for Silverblue. First we
build an ostree, using the standard configuration for the release
and subvariant but with the 'advisory' and 'workarounds' repos
included, so it will contain current stable packages plus the
packages from the update and any workarounds. Then we build an
ostree installer image with the ostree embedded, again including
advisory and workarounds repos in the installer build config so
packages from them will be included in the installer environment.
The image is uploaded, which completes the _ostree_build test.
Then an install_default_update_ostree test runs, which does a
standard install and boot from the installer image.
We do make a change that affects other tests, too. We now run
_advisory_post on live image install tests, as well as this new
ostree install image install test. It was skipped before because
of an exception that's really only needed for the netinst image
install test. In that test, packages from the update won't be
included in the installed system, so we can't run _advisory_post
on it. But for ostree and live image build/install tests, the
installed system *should* include packages from the update, so
we should check and make sure that it does.
