296c81b9ca Add DIB_YUM_REPO_PACKAGE as an alternative to DIB_YUM_REPO_CONF
A custom yum repository can now be configured by defining
`DIB_YUM_REPO_PACKAGE` as a yum available package or a URL to an rpm file.
This package can install repo files with any associated keys and
certificates.

A good example of such a package upstream is rdo-release[1] which
includes multiple repo files, the repo keys, and a root certificate.
This makes these repos impractical to install via DIB_YUM_REPO_CONF.

Downstream, repo packages like this a frequently used to bootstrap
development builds of RHEL with development repos.

ee46e2f9b7 Add version-less RHEL element for RHEL7 and RHEL8
Make a version-less RHEL element to handle both '7' and '8' DIB_RELEASE.
The element usage should align with other elements which operate in the
same way such as the Fedora element.

Additionally, this patch adds support for RHEL8 that operates with
Python 3.
As of now, users of diskimage-builder will still be able to use the
'rhel7' element, or migrate to 'rhel' and specify their respective
DIB_RELEASE value.

* mount the xfs file-system for extraction as read-only.  vaguely
  based on explaination in [1] and the fact we only read the image
  data into a tar, so can ignore this.

    XFS (dm-1): Superblock has unknown read-only compatible features (0x4) enabled.

* Use the redhat system python as the dib-python version.  dib was
  ahead of it's time making an abstracted python interpreter for
  system work ;) the system python should work for running the various
  dib element scripts.
