This reduces the coverage of the identification test a bit but
also *substantially* simplifies it. We run into a ton of problems
when we try to check the version and prerelease text on screens
where it appears on banners:
* The banners differ between variants
* The pre-release text is translated
* The banners have gradients so for RTL languages, even if some
text is untranslated (e.g. 'Fedora 31') it appears on a
different background color than on LTR languages
* The prerelease text is dark red; if it appears on a dark blue
area of the banner this can trigger an os-autoinst needle
comparison bug: https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/56822
All of this together means we wind up continually fighting these
checks and we have a whole forest of needles just for them, and
it doesn't seem worthwhile. So let's drop all the places where
we were checking version and prerelease on banners, and only
check them in two places where they appear on a grey background,
which avoids most of the problems (we just need one version
needle per release, and one prerelease needle per language).

This is causing all kinds of trouble, because when the test is
run on the Server DVD - with the 'orange to blue' gradient - the
prerelease note is dark red text on a dark blue background.
os-autoinst actually reduces the color depth of images/needles
and greyscales them before performing the match...but for this
dark red text on dark blue background, the result seems to be
that the text and background come out *the same grey*, so *any*
text will match the needle (even if it's completely different
text), as will *no text at all*. I've tried finessing around
this a few times but it just keeps happening, so for now I'm
just disabling the pre-release text check at this point. We still
have the check during _boot_to_anaconda, when the text appears
on a *grey* background and so isn't a problem. I'm not removing
the needles yet, until we hear back from upstream:

That other one didn't help, so let's try this - try and spot if
the spoke is in the unexpected state (the needle should only
match if the spoke is done processing and still in warning
state, it shouldn't match while the needle is still thinking)
and click through it again if so.
IIRC disk_guided_empty is the only storage test that clicks
through INSTALLATION DESTINATION *really* fast, so let's try
adding a 2-second sleep to it to see if it works around the
'sometimes spoke shows as incomplete' bug that cropped up in
F26 and hasn't been fixed yet and tends to cause failures.
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 adds a couple of new exporter modules, renames main_common
to utils (this is a better name: openSUSE's main_common is
functions used in main.pm, utils is what they call their module
full of miscellaneous commonly-used functions), and moves a
bunch of utility functions that were previously needlessly
implemented as instance methods in base classes into the
exporter modules. That means we can get rid of all the annoying
$self-> syntax for calling them.
We get rid of `fedorabase` entirely, as it's no longer useful
for anything. Other base classes keep the 'standard' methods
(like `post_fail_hook`) and methods which actually need to be
methods (like `root_console`, whose behaviour is different in
anacondatest and installedtest).
Test Plan:
Do a full test suite run and check everything lines
up. There should be no functional differences from before at all,
this is just a re-org.

Summary:
BOOT_UPDATES_IMG_URL is a pretty misleading name - it used to
be the actual URL, but now it's simply a boolean that decides
whether we look for the effect of the openQA updates image or
not. TEST_UPDATES seems clearer.
GRUBADD does the same thing as GRUB, on top of it. The point of
this is so we can add an option to the scheduler CLI that lets
you say 'run the normal tests, but with this updates image' -
so we can easily (albeit manually triggered) check the impact
of some anaconda change that needs testing. It should never be
set in the templates or the tests, it's there strictly for the
scheduler (whether that's fedora_openqa_schedule or literally a
person calling `client isos post`) to use as a kind of override.
The tests that test updates image loading will probably fail
when doing this, but all other tests should work as intended,
including ones that specify GRUB, becase the extra params will
just get added on top. That's why I invented a new var instead
of just letting the scheduler override GRUB's value when POST
ing.
Test Plan:
Check the rename didn't break anything (updates tests
still work). Run tests with GRUBADD param, make sure value is
correctly appended to cmdline both when GRUB is also specified
and when it is not.

Summary:
per details in T759, the 'unipony' updates image we use to test
the updates image features doesn't work with latest anaconda (f24
and Rawhide). I've built a new updates image which uses a neat
anaconda feature that allows you to override CSS with a file in
a special location; it sets the background for disk capacity
texts on the INSTALLATION DESTINATION spoke to be pink. This
lets us use a simple needle that just looks for a pink blob on
that spoke, on the basis that it's unlikely there'll ever be a
pink blob there for any other reason, so if there is one, the
updates image worked. There will be an accompanying tools diff
to change the updates disk image to use the new updates image.
Test Plan:
Do a test run and check the updates image tests pass
and no other tests are broken. You'll need to pull in the tools
diff and re-generate the updates disk image to check that test,
the scsi_updates_img test should work with just this diff.

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.)
