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.)
