Koji foreman-plugins-nightly-nonscl-rhel* tags

Development
1

On Weds next week there will be some disruption to Foreman's nightly
plugin tags, as I attempt to add a non-SCL set of tags and buildroots.
I'll try to keep it to a minimum, but please avoid building new plugin
packages while it's happening.

As part of https://github.com/theforeman/foreman-packaging/pull/736,
Stephen's trying to build an additional non-SCL version of
rubygem-dynflow, so this will need separate tags build both versions.

I'll be creating new nonscl variants, moving existing non-SCL builds to
these tags and then setting foreman-plugin-nightly-rhel* to inherit from
the nonscl tags. Then I'll update tito configs in rpm/develop to send
non-SCL plugin packages to the new build target, and mash configs to
generate the repos from both tags.

Cheers,

This is now complete, let me know if you see any unexpected RPM build
failures on Koji. Both SCL and non-SCL plugins seem to be building OK.

I didn't do this precisely - instead, I set
foreman-plugin-nightly-rhel*-build to inherit from the nonscl tags
explicitly. This makes cloning for releases much easier as cloning the
SCL tag won't then also keep the inherited nonscl builds.

http://koji.katello.org/koji/taginfo?tagID=403 (plugins SCL build)
http://koji.katello.org/koji/taginfo?tagID=786 (plugins non-SCL build)

I also changed foreman-nightly-rhel* to work in the same way for
consistency. It no longer inherits from nonscl, but only its build tag
does.

http://koji.katello.org/koji/taginfo?tagID=397 (foreman SCL build)

In the unlikely event that another tag (Katello?) needs access to
non-SCL builds inside buildroots, then run "kkoji add-tag-inheritance
–priority=15 example-build foreman-nightly-nonscl-rhel6" and again for
foreman-plugins-nightly-nonscl-rhel6, to explicitly add the nonscl tags
to the build tags.

Done, "tito release koji-foreman-plugins" will still work automatically
using the whitelists in tito.props to send packages to the right tags.

The only difference for users will be that there are two plugin
whitelists, an SCL one and a non-SCL one.

There was an added complication, in that I thought mash could be updated
to pull from two tags, but it only uses one AFAICT.

I added a further pair of tags, foreman-nightly-*-dist which inherits
from both SCL and non-SCL tags and mash uses that (like a SQL view).
This tag's created rather than cloned, so we won't get the problems of
non-SCL builds in SCL tags that occurred when branching before.
