As described inline, deprecate the "source" install for CentOS 8.
Overwriting the packaged tools has long been a pain-point in our
images, and the best outcome is just not to play the game [1].
However, the landscape remains complicated. For example, RHEL/CentOS
8 introduces the separate "platform-python" binary, which seems like
the right tool to install platform tools like "glean" (simple-init)
with. However, platform-python doesn't have virtualenv (only the
inbuilt venv).
So that every element doesn't have to hard-code in workarounds for
these various layouts, create two new variables DIB_PYTHON_PIP and
DIB_PYTHON_VIRTUALENV to just "do the right thing". If you need is
"install a pip package" or "create a virtualenv" this should work on
all the platforms we support. If you know more specifically what you
want (e.g. must be a python3 virtualenv) then nothing stops elements
calling that directly (e.g. python3 -m virtualenv create); these are
just helper wrappers for base elements that need to be broadly
compatible.

Don't install the "yum" package, which is a backwards compat around
dnf. With 687003f we should not need the backwards compat links any
more.
Add libcurl to avoid conficts with in the curl "-minimal" packages
that happens on CentOS 8. But skip it on Fedora, because it seems to
create more problems there (not going to pretend it isn't all a
hack ... but it seems to work).

A few places we either assume centos uses "yum" directly, or have
switching based on the distro type.
In both cases, we can use ${YUM} directly to avoid ambiguity

The libselinux packages etc don't exist for Python 2 on Centos 8 [1].
Ensure the package map installs the python3 versions.
We could probably invert the logic now, and make it so Centos 7 is the
"special" version that overrides things to install python2. Left
alone for now to avoid changing too much at once.

CentOS 8 has the "new" split-up locales packages. Fedora 24 is now
long gone, so take out the old branch and apply the lang package
install to Centos 8 as well.
The manual locale cleanup is not necessary on Centos 8; skip it.

The repo format has slightly changed for CentOS 8 (s/os/baseos/).
Make the chroot builder look for a more specific repos.d directory
first named for the distro variable, then fall back to to top-level
dir (this avoids having to constantly change fedora).
Update the gate mirror setup and roles for new Centos 8 paths too.

Install the Python 3 libselinux packages for Fedora platforms. I
think this is the right choice; Fedora is a Python-3 only distro so we
shouldn't default to installing the python2 libraries.
This has a practical effect if you're using Ansible with
ansible_python_interpreter=/usr/bin/python3 as it needs these
packages.
There is some small chance of breakage if you're using Ansible still
with Python 2, I guess. In infra I notice we bring this in with
"zuul-worker" project-config element. On balance, I think that if you
need the Python 2 packages for some reason, it should be a special
install and not part of redhat-common.

linux-firmware and linux-firmware-whence (meta package for mostly iwl
firmwares) packages account for approx. 289 M install size on a F30
system, and linux-firmware for approx. 176 M on CentOS 7. Users needing
these firmwares are eventually baremetal users and are not looking for a
very minimal operating system base install like virtual image users are.
Thus, a non-minimal OS element is better suited for them. Alternatively,
it could be later considered a dedicated firmware element.
This is inline with I8ce65e1d357d15e8ed8995ad1dcaea02bbd1986f.

We have an application breaking because /usr/share/cracklib is being
deleted from the image. The application installs its dependencies,
including cracklib, but since yum shows that cracklib is already
installed, it does not reinstall it.

Newer openSUSE distributions install an absolute link to /run/netconfig
as /etc/resolv.conf in $TARGET_ROOT. as that points outside
TARGET_ROOT, we unintentionally wipe the system resolv.conf here
and break our ability to finish building the image.

This is a follow-on to I475a253091cbaf63687b91c748c31a6753bb0f57 as we
are still seeing issues on some clouds with unconfigured networking.
We increase the timeout, but also make it configurable so we can
fiddle it without a dib release in the gate.
To follow-on from the experimentation done by clarkb, I can confirm by
emperical testing on a Centos 7 image (from today, today being this
change's date) that setting
net.ipv6.conf.all.autoconf=0
by itself is "fatal" and the interfaces do not come up; i.e. nm does
not by default seem to re-enable ipv6 for the interface. However,
explicitly adding:
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6_AUTOCONF=yes
to the interface file *does* seem to make it work, even if
"all.autoconf=0" is set (then again, there's also bugs about the
effect of this [1]). However, no extant distribution (I can currently
find) does anything like this by default.
If this continues, this may be an option. Another might be to avoid
the use of the nm-settings-ifcfg-rh profiles and move directly to nm
ini files with glean.

As described inline, we need to ensure the underlying directories in
the image are correctly labeled, or we get all manner of services
failing during boot with selinux in enforcing mode. Although the
problem is generic, this first shows up in Fedora 30 as systemd has
become more strict about namespace failures (I think) [1].

Something (possibly [1], but that change is at best cryptic) has
changed such that we don't get correct /etc/os-release files
installed. This flows on to grub half-installing itself, enough to
not fail the build but not enough to make something bootable.
Installing the -cloud release package gets it back, and seems like a
sane choice for dib.

This element configures systemd to send its journal to the console,
which can then be retreived by server commands. In the case of
nodepool, if the image failed to boot the console will be dumped into
the logs when nodepool decides the node is not responding. Having
this can be very helpful diagnosing early boot errors.
