This is a surprisingly large change as we want to go back to
the console we were previously on after doing it. To do that we
need to know what console we were on, and to know *that*, we need
to port everything that currently uses (ctrl-)alt-fX to switch
consoles to use select_console instead.
This is primarily intended to make running setup_repos.py faster
when it has to download a lot of packages (as typing in hundreds
of package names is quite slow). But it actually makes the whole
thing faster, even when only downloading one or two packages.

tab will both reach the environment selection list and then go
through it, so we don't need to start out with tab and then
switch to down. And since all we need to do is hit one key until
a needle matches, let's use the handy function os-autoinst
provides for doing this...
This should fix it on current Rawhide (where it only takes one
tab, or zero tabs - not sure which - to reach the list).

This is tailored to the initial deployment of webUI in
Workstation live images only; we may need to tweak flows and
approaches as webUI goes further.

This adds a new script - cleanup-needles.py - to use for cleaning
up old needles. It has to be used in conjunction with a database
query; the comment at the top explains how to do that query and
export the needed information. It produces a git commit with
needles that haven't matched since a certain date (specified in
the sql query) removed, subject to a 'keeplist' of needles we
keep even if they seem to be old.
I also enhanced check-needles.py to check for cases where tests
seem to be trying to match a tag we have no needles for. This
was necessary to find cases where the cleanup script was too
aggressive (i.e. the things that wound up in the 'keeplist'),
but it also turned out to find quite a lot of cases where the
code really *was* looking for a needle that had gone in a
previous cleanup or that never existed; the commits before this
one clean up a lot of those cases.
The code to decide which string literals are needle tags is
pretty dumb and hacky and needs some manual cueing sometimes -
that's what the `# testtag` changes in this commit are for.
Making it smarter would probably require this script to get a
lot more complicated and either incorporate or become a
tokenizer, which I don't really want to do.

anaconda changed how this log line looks (again); update the
check to handle old and new styles for now.

It seems the message got moved to anaconda.log in Rawhide. I
think it should be fine to just check both.

This adds a check that the default package set selection is
actually correct, where possible and appropriate, as part of
the `_software_selection` test. We do this by examining the
`packaging.log` log file and checking which environment group
was selected.

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:
the main thing this does is try and type slower in X - this
should cover nearly everywhere we type anything in X, and make
it type slower. We also add a bit more safety checking to some
old tests which didn't have it (mainly _do_install_and_reboot)
- wait_still_screen after typing to make sure all the keypresses
were registered before continuing.
This is an attempt to mitigate the problems we've seen where
the wrong text gets typed into the wrong places and the tests
break.
This branch is live on staging atm. It still has *some* issues,
but I do think it's an improvement.
Test Plan:
run the tests (probably several times), compare to
runs without the change, see if it's better or worse...
