This test originally attempted use the dvd-iso to demonstrate installation of a graphical server from the mirrorlist. However, after mirrorlist is selected as the Installation Source the option to install "Server with GUI" (graphical-server) disappears from the Base Environment list and only "server", "minimal" and "custom" package sets remain. This is the subject of Issue #146.

The issue is resolved for 9.1 by selecting "server" from the Base Environment list but as mentioned in #146 there is a remaining issue with resolving the mirrorlist URL for 8.7. This is potentially a problem with a returned mirror, not the test code. New attempts to download repository metadata, presumably from a different returned mirror, were eventually successful.

In conclusion, this is a fix for 9.1 but not 8.7 and Issue #146 needs to be pursued further.

This was tested using:

openqa-cli api -X POST isos ISO=Rocky-9.1-20221214.1-x86_64-dvd.iso ARCH=x86_64 DISTRI=rocky FLAVOR=universal VERSION=9.1 BUILD=-"$(date +%Y%m%d.%H%M%S).0"-9.1-20221214.1-universal TEST=install_mirrorlist_graphical
openqa-cli api -X POST isos ISO=Rocky-8.7-x86_64-dvd1.iso ARCH=x86_64 DISTRI=rocky FLAVOR=universal VERSION=8.7 BUILD=-"$(date +%Y%m%d.%H%M%S).0"-8.7-20221110-universal TEST=install_mirrorlist_graphical

Both tests should pass but sporadic failures of 8.7 at the "_check_install_source" stage are expected.

In above job JSON the PACKAGE_SET is not set to server. This indicates that openqa-clone-custom-git-refspec method will not work PRs that make changes in whole or in part of templates.fif.json and that such tests require local modification of templates.fif.json along with fifloader.py or must be run outside of the production openQA instance.

The desired behavior would be achieved by POSTing with the PACKAGE_SET variable or by adding that variable in an openqa-clone-job command (which has already been done).

Based on above I am approving this PR.
