the first time you open one you can't scroll through it using

submenu, open it then close it then open it again.

I started out trying to fix os-release for the recent change to
add "Prerelease" tags to the VERSION and PRETTY_NAME fields, then
things spiralled. It got me thinking about the awkward DEVELOPMENT
variable we use, so I decided to get rid of it and refactor the
few things that use it. I refactored the anaconda prerelease tag
check, and wrote a new giant comment that gives details about
exactly how anaconda decides whether to show those tags, to give
context to our choices about when to expect them. This check now
uses a new LABEL variable the scheduler now sets. I also wound up
creating new UP1REL and UP2REL vars to define the 'source' release
for upgrade tests, separate from CURRREL and PREVREL, which are
now never lies - they really are the current stable and previous
stable release, even for update upgrade tests.

This adds a new test that implementsQA:Testcase_desktop_login
on both GNOME and KDE.
While working on this, we realized that the "desktop_clean"
needles were really "app menu" needles, and for KDE, this was
a duplication with the new "system menu" needles, because on KDE
the app menu and the system menu are the same. So I (Adam)
started to de-duplicate that, but also realized that "app menu
button" is a much more accurate name for these needles, so I was
renaming the old desktop_clean needles to app_menu_button. That
led me to the realization that "check_desktop_clean" is itself a
dumb name, because we don't (at least, any more, way back in the
mists of time we may have done) do anything to check that the
desktop is "clean" - we're really just asserting that we're at a
desktop *at all*. While thinking *that* through, I *also* realized
that the whole "open the overview and look for the app grid icon"
workaround it did is no longer necessary, because GNOME doesn't
use a translucent top bar any more. That went away in GNOME 3.32,
which is in Fedora 30, our oldest supported release.
So I threw that away, renamed the function "check_desktop",
cleaned up all the needle naming and tagging, and also added an
app menu needle for GNOME in Japanese because we were missing
one (the Japanese tests have been using the "app grid icon"
workaround the whole time).

It seems like the situation where we need to pull an update from
updates-testing into all update tests to work around some known
issue is going to keep happening. So instead of constantly
adding and then entirely removing bespoke lines for each specific
workaround, let's have a permanent mechanism for doing this: a
hash with release numbers as keys, and arrayrefs of update IDs
as values, and a block to call `bodhi updates download` on the
appropriate array for the release under test. This way, to add
or remove a workaround you just update the hash. If we're at a
point where *no* workarounds are needed the %workarounds hash
can be made entirely empty (it must exist, though) and the code
will be a clean no-op.
The actual workaround here pulls in Lmod updates I just sent out
to work around this issue in one of the KDE update tests:
https://openqa.fedoraproject.org/tests/497160#step/base_update_cli/11
there's some code in Lmod that gets sourced in bash profiles
which breaks openQA's `validate_script_output` by blurping two
lines of informational output into the output of the script.
The update backports a change from upstream Lmod master that
sends that informational output to stderr instead of stdout.

This adds a test for QA:Testcase_Anaconda_User_Interface_VNC -
the VNC install test case. It's implemented as a server/client
pair, with the server booting from the Server DVD image with
`inst.vnc` and the client booting from the desktop base disk
image, setting up networking, then running Boxes to connect to
the server and run the install.
There are various little tweaks to test loading and logic to
handle this, mostly pretty clear. We also move the workaround
for 'spurious auth prompt appears on desktop after you switch
away to a VT and back' out of the desktop update test and into
the `desktop_vt` helper function, since now this test can hit
it as well. We enhance _graphical_wait_login to handle the boot

We quite often want to run the update tests on a Koji task (not
a Bodhi update) for some reason - usually to test a potential
fix for an issue, or at a maintainer's request to test a change
before it is merged upstream and officially sent out as an
update. Up till now I've always hacked up utils.pm on the
staging server by hand to do this, which is horrible. Together
with a commit to fedora_openqa, this should allow us to do it in
a nice, sane way via the CLI. It's mostly just tweaking the
"updates" repo setup in utils.pm as you'd expect, but there's a
bit of subtlety to it because of the installer tests that use
%ADVISORY% as a variable substitution in the disk image name;
you can't do something like `%ADVISORY or KOJITASK%`, sadly, so
I had to have almost-redundant variables ADVISORY, KOJITASK and

We hit an interesting case in update testing recently:
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2018-115068f60e
An earlier version of that update failed testing. When we dug
into it a bit, we found that the test was failing because an
earlier version of the `pki-server` package was installed than
the version that was in the update; when asked (as part of
FreeIPA deployment) to install it, dnf had noticed that there
were dependency issues with the version of the package from the
update, but it happened to be able to install the version from
the frozen 'stable' repo...so it just went ahead and did that.
In this case, the 'missed' package resulted in a test failure,
but it'd actually be possible for this to happen and the test
to complete; we really ought to notice when this happens, and
treat it as a test failure.
So what this attempts to do is: at the end of all update tests,
check for all installed packages with the same name as a package
from the update, and compare their full NEVR to the one of the
package from the update. If a package with the same name as one
of the update packages is installed, but does not appear to be
the *same NEVR*, we fail, and upload the lists of packages for
manual investigation as to what the heck's going on.

That whole creaky edifice of conditionals that figured out how
many times to press 'down' was a mess I always hated, and I just
found out that the fix for BLS wasn't complete - I'd assumed in
writing it that systems weren't being migrated to BLS on upgrade
to F30, but actually they are. This makes that design very hard
as we'd have had to find a way to change the number of 'down'
presses part-way through update tests, and all the ways I can
think of to do that would've made this even sillier.
Happily I managed to come up with what looks like a much simpler
approach: just go from the bottom. It seems that in every setup
I can think of to check - all three arches, BLS, no BLS, pre-
install, post-install - the linux line is two lines up from the
bottom of the config stanza (the last line is blank, and the
last line but one is the initramfs line). So we can just press
down 50 times (to make damn sure we're at the bottom) then press
up twice and we should be in the right place, no matter the arch,
the release, or if BLS is in use or not. Whew.

The reason we have all this horrible code to use the commented-
out baseurl lines in the repo files instead of the metalinks
that are usually used is a timing issue with the metalink
system. As a protection against stale mirrors, the metalink
system sends the package manager a list of mirrors *and a list
of recent checksums for the repo metadata*. The package manager
goes out and gets the metadata from the first mirror on the
list, then checksums it; if the checksum isn't on the list of
checksums it got from mirrormanager, it assumes that means the
mirror is stale, and tries the next on the list instead.
The problem is that MM's list of checksums is currently only
updated once an hour (by a cron job). So we kept running into
a problem where, when a test ran just after one of the repos
had been regenerated, the infra mirror it's supposed to use
would be rejected because the checksum wasn't on the list - but
not because the mirror was stale, but because it was too fresh,
it had got the new packages and metadata but mirrormanager's
list of checksums hadn't been updated to include the checksum
for the latest metadata.
All this baseurl munging code was getting ridiculous, though,
what with the tests getting more complicated and errors showing
up in the actual repo files and stuff. It occurred to me that
instead of using the baseurl we can just use the 'mirrorlist'
system instead of 'metalink'. mirrorlist is the dumber, older
system which just provides the package manager a list of mirrors
and nothing else - the whole stale-mirror-detection-checksum
thing does not happen with mirrorlists, the package manager just
tries all the mirrors in order and uses the first that works.
And happily, it's very easy to convert the metalink URLs into
mirrorlist URLs, and it saves all that faffing around trying to
fix up baseurls.
Also, adjust upgrade_boot to do the s/metalink/mirrorlist/
substitution, so upgrade tests don't run into the timing issue
in the steps before the main repo_setup run is done by
upgrade_run, and adjust repo_setup_compose to sub this line out
later.

Now F28 went stable, we're not disabling updates on upgrade any
more, and this bug got exposed: the location of the updates and
updates-testing repos actually changed between F27 and F28, so
the `baseurl` line from fedora-repos in F27 isn't correct for
F28. When doing an upgrade from < 28 to > 27, we need to correct
the URL when we're done installing stuff from the old release
repos but before we start trying to pull stuff from the new
release repos.
This repo munging crap is really getting fragile, it'd be great
if we could get that metadata timing issue resolved so we could
reliably use mirrormanager...

This adds the FreeIPA server and client upgrade tests to a new
updates-server-upgrade flavor which fedora_openqa will schedule
for updates. This way, we can test whether updates break
FreeIPA upgrades, which is a request the FreeIPA team made to
me. This has been deployed on staging for the last week or so
and appears to work fine.

Since gnome-initial-setup-3.28.0-5.fc28 , the g-i-s screens
that are supposed to be suppressed as part of
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ReduceInitialSetupRedundancy
are now suppressed on FAW installs as well as traditional ones.
So adjust the logic accordingly.

Trying to keep track of what these magic numbers mean is really
getting messy, so let's do it a bit more explicitly, using the
page names g-i-s uses internally, and lots of comments. This
should make it clearer and more maintainable when stuff changes.

aarch64 managed to hit the problem this 'magic timeout' tries
to avoid, so let's extend it :(
