[yocto-autobuilder-helper][PATCH 00/11] Implement 'containers' jobs

From: Tim Orling <[email protected]>

This series contains the 'yocto-autobuilder-helper' patches to enable:
* building, testing and publishing of 'vcontainer-tarball'
  - the tarball is checked to see if a newer version exists and if so
    extracts the new version before testing
  - vcontainer-tests, vdkr-tests and vpdmn-tests are run as individual
    jobs
* building and pushing containers from:
  - meta-virtualization
  - meta-yocto-containers-demo
* containers are pushed when the push_containers boolean is set in the
  AutoBuilder UI
  - regstries are set with CONTAINER_REGISTRIES variable
* added getconfigdict() to scripts/utils to allow container names to mapped
  from recipe name to a more commonly used upstream container name (e.g.
  app-container-python -> python)
* authentication uses local user credentials (e.g. ~/.docker/config.json
  or .../auth.json for podman)
* containers are tagged with PV_MAJOR, PV_MAJOR.PV_MINOR, DISTRO_CODENAME
  and yocto-x.y release (yocto-x.y.z for release builds).

Additional features, such as container signing and attaching SLSA provenance
attestations will come in a future series, once this initial functionality
is agreed upon an stable.

This series depends on a related series for 'yocto-autobuilder2'.
