We're getting a spurious "Authentication required" for a
background refresh of the system repos sometimes, depending on
whether it happens while we're at a tty. This is now accepted
by upstream, so let's handle it and make it a soft failure for

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
ADVISORY_OR_TASK (we could kinda just live with ADVISORY_OR_TASK
except I didn't want to drop ADVISORY as it's an unnecessary
change from previous behavior).

inst.addrepo was added in F29. In F28 it should just sorta not
do anything at all. It's not worth doing a big workaround to
make F28 graphically add the repo in this case; let's just allow
F28 to not actually add the repo. It's fine! This is fine.

In https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1669256 it became
obvious that there's a missing feature in the new installer test
for updates: the update is both used in the image build process
and built into the installer environment itself, but it is not
actually included in the installed package set. This can be a
problem if the update has a bug that manifests *only* at install
time if it is in the install transaction (which is exactly the
case there), because the test will not catch this, and nor will
any other test.
So this commit makes `support_server` set up the update repo and
serve it out via NFS when it's run in an update context, and
makes the actual update install test run parallel with it and
use that repository. This way the install should include the
package(s) from the update. (It also of course means the test
fails if an update breaks NFS or something like that, but hey,
we want to know that!)
A parallel commit for fedora_openqa is necessary to add the
required CURRREL setting for the updates-installer flavor.

This adds a test which builds a netinst image potentially with
the package(s) from the update, and uploads that image. It also
adds a test which runs a default install using that image. This
is intended to check whether the update breaks the creation or
use of install images; particularly this will let us test
anaconda etc. updates. We also update the minimal disk image
name, as we have to make it bigger to accommodate this test,
and making it bigger changes its name - the actual change to
the disk image itself is in createhdds. We also have to redo a
bunch of installer needles for F28 fonts, after I removed them
a month or so back...

The bug never got explicitly addressed, but it's very old and
anaconda has been substantially changed since. The workaround
sometimes triggers erroneously now (because the icon sometimes
goes black while the spoke is still in 'Checking storage
configuration...' state), which is awkward. I can't be 100% sure
the bug doesn't sometimes still happen, but if it does, we'll
notice fairly soon, and we can tweak this and put it back.

It seems Rawhide auto-signing is working fine now: openQA claims
this needle has 'never' been matched (which really means 'not

https://openqa.stg.fedoraproject.org/tests/424393 is a failure
where the 'Download' [updates] button was already visible when
we went to the tab. We already checked whether an 'apply' button
is visible and skipped the 'refresh' click if so, but because
the 'download' button is a new thing, we weren't skipping the
'refresh' click if 'download' was already visible.
So in this case, even though we could already see 'download', we
went ahead and clicked 'refresh'...then *immediately* started
looking for 'download'. It seems that Software did not refresh
and remove the 'Download' button *immediately* when we pressed
'refresh' - it left the 'Download' button visible briefly, and
*in this brief window*, we clicked it. *Then* Software kinda
'noticed' we'd clicked 'Update', and it seems it just sort of
throws away our click on 'Download' at that point and does the
refresh.
So at that point, the test thinks it's clicked 'Download' and
expects to see 'Apply', but actually the 'Download' click got
more or less thrown away, so the test fails, sitting at the
'Download' button.
To solve this, let's just extend the existing check to skip the
'refresh' click if 'download' *or* 'apply' are already visible.
There is a sort of possibility here that we could wind up
downloading and installing some updates that existed and were
noticed *before* we did our python3-kickstart trick, but not
install the python3-kickstart update, and cause the test to fail
because of that, but that doesn't seem to have happened before
when we were seeing the 'update' button, so I think I'm not
going to borrow trouble. If it happens, we'll deal with it I
guess.
The comment talks only about KDE, but clearly it can be the case
that an automatic check makes the button visible on GNOME too,
so let's rewrite the comment too.

If an update test fails before reaching advisory_post, we don't
generate the 'what update packages were installed' and 'were
any update packages *not* installed when they should have been'
logs, but these may well be useful for diagnosing the failure -
so let's also do the same stuff there. Only let's not do it all
twice.

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.

Weirdly, occasionally some update tests seem to fail because
the 'comm' util we use to produce the list of packages from the
update that were actually tested during the job doesn't think
one of the input files is in alphabetical order, even though we
sort them both when they're produced. I don't know if this is
possibly due to the definition of 'alphabetical order' changing
as part of the update, or what. But we really shouldn't *fail*
the test when this happens, as it's not part of the functional
test, we're just producing convenience data. So, let's handle
the command failing, and if it happens, upload the input files
so we can maybe figure out why it's unhappy...

Lately, we can't be sure the desktop will be on tty1 after we
do 'systemctl isolate graphical.target'. For recent Workstation
lives it actually shows up on tty2.
We could be 'clever' and switch to tty2 on F29+ Workstation
lives...but actually it seems like if we just don't do anything,
systemd switches us to the correct tty. So let's rely on that,
at least as long as it's working.

At least one test (desktop_notifications_postinstall) boots from
the disk image uploaded by install_default_upload, and needs to
access the grub menu. On F29+ Workstation this is failing,
because the grub menu is now hidden by default, so when the test
boots, it never sees the bootloader screen, and fails.
I considered trying to teach it to hold down shift or hit f8 or
esc at the right time, but that seems like it might be hard. So
instead let's just try to disable the hidden menu when we're
about to upload the installed system image. This is kinda going
against the 'preserve natural system behaviour' principle we try
to use for openQA, but I think it's OK as we do have other tests
that will exercise the 'hidden boot menu' stuff to some extent.

For some reason, in recent tests, switching to a console after
live install completes is taking a long time, and tests are
failing because we 'only' allow 10 seconds for the login prompt
to appear. This seems to indicate some kind of performance bug,
but we don't really want all liveinst tests to fail on in, this
is not primarily a performance testing framework. So let's
tweak the root_console / console_login bits a bit to allow a
configurable timeout for the login prompt to appear, and use
that to wait 30 secs instead of 10 in this case.

The FreeIPA upgrade test didn't actually check that FreeIPA is
actually running after the upgrade and reboot, it just kinda
assumed it is. Let's add a check to the start of the 'check'
test module that makes sure ipa.service actually comes up to
'active' state. This'll make it clearer when tests are failing
because FreeIPA didn't come up right after the upgrade. The
check will run on non-upgrade tests too, but that's fine.

This adds a new test intended to just check boot chain things
for updates. It doesn't run any test modules besides the stock
update ones, but sets a variable, ADVISORY_BOOT_TEST, which
causes _advisory_update to do some additional stuff after
installing the updates but before rebooting: it forces regen
of the initramfs and bootloader config, and reinstalls the
bootloader on BIOS (not UEFI as it's not relevant). If the
following boot fails, we probably have a bug somewhere.

Looking at this, it's a bit weird: the updated packages are

it. I don't think there's actually any problem with doing the
