Summary:
this is following a SUSE model for tests where we need a server
end but don't want setting up the server to constitute a real
test in itself, we want it to be stable. The 'support_server'
test just boots a pre-built (by createhdds) disk image, sets up
networking, and runs the iSCSI server.
To run the iSCSI test we need to handle networking config in
anaconda (or we would need to set the support server up as a
DHCP server, which may be worth considering), so this adds that.
We also need to be able to specify the target device for a
volume in custom partitioning, so this adds that too.
Test Plan:
Build the necessary support server disk image (use
D883), then run the test and make sure it works. Also make sure
all other tests continue to work.

Summary:
This adds three new custom storage tests and some needles to
support them, and tweaks the custom storage methods a bit to
address some things that cropped up in writing the tests. A
new method is added for changing the filesystem, as that's
a distinct operation from changing the device type.
This also restores the previous behaviour of select_disks()
where it handled selecting custom partitioning when needed.
Turns out it's pretty common to use regex'es in perl! Who'd'a
thought.
A corresponding commit to add the tests to openqa_fedora_tools
is coming.
There's no post-install step for the tests yet; I'll try and
write those up and add them soon.
Test Plan:
Do a full run, including the new tests, on Alpha RC2 and check
all are scheduled correctly and run correctly. The LVM thinp
test is expected to fail as it catches a genuine bug.

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.)
