Adam Williamson ef689e75a9 use compose repository (not master repo) for most tests
Summary:
we have a long-standing problem with all the tests that hit
the repositories. The tests are triggered as soon as a compose
completes. At this point in time, the compose is not synced to
the mirrors, where the default 'fedora' repo definition looks;
the sync happens after the compose completes, and there is also
a metadata sync step that must happen after *that* before any
operation that uses the 'fedora' repository definition will
actually use the packages from the new compose. Thus all net
install tests and tests that installed packages have been
effectively testing the previous compose, not the current one.

We have some thoughts about how to fix this 'properly' (such
that the openQA tests wouldn't have to do anything special,
but their 'fedora' repository would somehow reflect the compose
under test), but none of them is in place right now or likely
to happen in the short term, so in the mean time this should
deal with most of the issues. With this change, everything but
the default_install tests for the netinst images should use
the compose-under-test's Everything tree instead of the 'fedora'
repository, and thus should install and test the correct
packages.

This relies on a corresponding change to openqa_fedora_tools
to set the LOCATION openQA setting (which is simply the base
location of the compose under test).

Test Plan:
Do a full test run, check (as far as you can) tests run sensibly
and use appropriate repositories.
