Steve Baker 296c81b9ca Add DIB_YUM_REPO_PACKAGE as an alternative to DIB_YUM_REPO_CONF
A custom yum repository can now be configured by defining
`DIB_YUM_REPO_PACKAGE` as a yum available package or a URL to an rpm file.
This package can install repo files with any associated keys and
certificates.

A good example of such a package upstream is rdo-release[1] which
includes multiple repo files, the repo keys, and a root certificate.
This makes these repos impractical to install via DIB_YUM_REPO_CONF.

Downstream, repo packages like this a frequently used to bootstrap
development builds of RHEL with development repos.

Image building tools for OpenStack

diskimage-builder is a flexible suite of components for building a wide-range of disk images, filesystem images and ramdisk images for use with OpenStack.

This repository has the core functionality for building such images, both virtual and bare metal. Images are composed using elements; while fundamental elements are provided here, individual projects have the flexibility to customise the image build with their own elements.

For example:

$ DIB_RELEASE=bionic disk-image-create -o ubuntu-bionic.qcow2 vm ubuntu

will create a bootable Ubuntu Bionic based qcow2 image.

diskimage-builder is useful to anyone looking to produce customised images for deployment into clouds. These tools are the components of TripleO that are responsible for building disk images. They are also used extensively to build images for testing OpenStack itself, particularly with nodepool. Platforms supported include Ubuntu, CentOS, RHEL and Fedora.
