EL6 Support in Katello Dev Env

Is there any reason to support EL6 in our development environments?
Would there ever be a scenario where you specifically want to use 6 to
replicate a customer bug?

This discussion stems from a PR I made to change service to
systemctl in the rake setup task for Katello, though at the time I
didn't realize RHEL6 doesn't support systemctl. If we move forward
with this, we would also want to remove RHEL6 dev environments from
katello-deploy.

I'm good with dropping el6 dev environment support. I can't think of any good
reason to keep it anymore.

+1 from me. the el7 one is much faster and likely any el6 specific
issues would have to be investigated in a production deployment.
