Carlos Goncalves 8226384cf0 Add CentOS 8 support
* Add "centos" element, a CentOS version-independent element. This is in
  line with the same work done for RHEL in Stein cycle.
* Deprecate the centos7 element. CentOS 7 support itself it not
  deprecated though. The new "centos" element provides the same support
  level as the "centos7" element.
* Add functional testing

The default CentOS version is 8. You can adjust it using the DIB_RELEASE
environment variable.
