While Debian-based distros use the label of ppc64el for ppc64 little
endian, Fedora uses ppc64le.
The ironic-agent was doing arch specific package install of lshw over
dmidecode for ppc64 and ppc64el but was attempting to install dmidecode
on Fedora ppc64le which caused the test to fail due to a missing
package.
This change just adds ppc64le to the arch-specific package installation
description for the ironic-agent element.

It turns out make has always been a tacit dependency of openssl as it
ships a Makefile for certificates [1]. This just recently changed to
be a hard dependency in F27, so this now fails as openssl is a
dependency of protected packages such as dnf. Since it's always been
wrong to remove it, we take it out of the purge list.

There's a patch in flight in ironic-python-agent to switch the
default hardware manager to use lshw instead of dmidecode. [0]
This would require lshw to be installed regardless of
architecture. This patch removes the architecture rules from
lshw in the package-installs list.

Partial-Bug: #1715790
As described in the comments inline, on a selinux enabled kernel (such
as a centos build host) you need to have permissions to change the
contexts to those the kernel doesn't understand -- such as when you're
building a fedora image.
For some reason, setfiles has an arbitrary limit of 10 errors before
it stops. I believe we previously had 9 errors (this mean 9
mis-labeled files, which were just waiting to cause problems).
Something changed with F26 setfiles and it started erroring
immediately, which lead to investigation. Infra builds, on
non-selinux Ubuntu kernel's, would not have hit this issue.
This means we need to move this to run with a manual chroot into the
image under restorecon.
I'm really not sure why ironic-agent removes all the selinux tools
from the image, it seems like an over-optimisation (it's been like
that since Id6333ca5d99716ccad75ea1964896acf371fa72a). Keep them so
we can run the relabel.

Several people have popped up in IRC recently with failures in these
elements. Without Python 2.7 available in the image they are
unsupported (OpenStack hasn't supported it for a long time). Remove
these to avoid further confusion.
The centos/centos7 DISTRO split that has happened with centos-minimal
is unfortunate but I don't think it helps to rename centos7/rhel7 ATM.
To summarise; DISTRO=centos7 means image based build,
DISTRO=centos && DIB_RELEASE=7 means the minimal build.
In the future, I think it is important that the minimal builds and
image builds set the same DISTRO. This reflects that "upper" layers
shouldn't care about the exact building of the lower layers. I see
CentOS 8 going one of two ways
1) the changes are so significant, we start separate centos8 /
centos8-minimal elements. They both set DISTRO=centos8 (and
DIB_RELEASE to point-release maybe?). This means we have to update
all "if DISTRO == centos || DISTRO == centos7" branches to also check
for "centos8". Evenually (!) "centos" goes away for versioned DISTRO
only
2) we restore centos element with DISTRO=centos and DIB_RELEASE=8, and
centos-minimal remains the same. This means we have to audit all "if
DISTRO == centos" calls to make sure they're appropriate for version 8
(stick a "&& DIB_RELEASE=7" on them all basically).
I'm not sure we can fully decide until we start to see excatly how the
distro switching/matching bits look, but (2) is consistent with Ubuntu
and probably the preferred solution.
Some "rhel" parts have been cleaned up. More could be done in
rhel-common, but given our lack of coverage of that I'd prefer to
leave it for now.

I'm uncertain as to why this is using the "fedora" element for testing
... but it requires downloading the fedora .qcow on every test which
has shown to be unreliable. An easy thing to do is to switch it to
fedora-minimal; that will only involve downloads from local mirrors in
the gate.
Add redhat-rpm-config for minimal. I admit I have not fully gone
through why this is not pulled in. It's been an issue since
I459f2203fa145049dda185da952813118193d573 and there's all sorts of
bugs.

fedora/centos-minimal don't obey DIB_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR currently. I
don't really want them too -- we want to be able to separate the
mirrors used during the build process from those embedded into the
final image. Add DIB_YUM_MINIMAL_BOOTSTRAP_REPOS which is a directory
with repo files to use during the install.
This introduces setup-gate-mirrors.sh which is intended to setup
repo/sources/whatever files in the openstack gate that point to the
local region mirror. It pulls the info from the mirror_info.sh script
on each CI node.
The openstack-ci-mirrors element is updated to export these variables.
elements are updated to depend on it. Tests are restored

Currently we have all our elements and library files in a top-level
directory and install them into
<root>/share/diskimage-builder/[elements|lib] (where root is either /
or the root of a virtualenv).
The problem with this is that editable/development installs (pip -e)
do *not* install data_files. Thus we have no canonical location to
look for elements -- leading to the various odd things we do such as a
whole bunch of guessing at the top of disk-image-create and having a
special test-loader in tests/test_elements.py so we can run python
unit tests on those elements that have it.
data_files is really the wrong thing to use for what are essentially
assets of the program. data_files install works well for things like
config-files, init.d files or dropping documentation files.
By moving the elements under the diskimage_builder package, we always
know where they are relative to where we import from. In fact,
pkg_resources has an api for this which we wrap in the new
diskimage_builder/paths.py helper [1].
We use this helper to find the correct path in the couple of places we
need to find the base-elements dir, and for the paths to import the
library shell functions.
Elements such as svc-map and pkg-map include python unit-tests, which
we do not need tests/test_elements.py to special-case load any more.
They just get found automatically by the normal subunit loader.
I have a follow-on change (I69ca3d26fede0506a6353c077c69f735c8d84d28)
to move disk-image-create to a regular python entry-point.
Unfortunately, this has to move to work with setuptools. You'd think
a symlink under diskimage_builder/[elements|lib] would work, but it
doesn't.
[1] this API handles stuff like getting files out of .zip archive
modules, which we don't do. Essentially for us it's returning
__file__.
