Currently, the CI has been frequently timing out on Fedora Rawhide
nodes, and it's not clear why that is. One possibility is that this is
due to Rawhide using Linux kernels that are built with debugging
enabled, which makes it slower than released Fedoras. So it might be a
matter of just increasing the timeout.
Currently, the timeout for stable Fedoras is 20 minutes, and that for
Rawhide is 22 minutes. An attempt to increase the Rawhide timeout to 30
minutes didn't succeed, so maybe 45 minutes will be sufficient.

Not all file are equal when it comes to testing. Unit tests are related
strictly to the source code and documentation changes do not concern it.
System tests have a wider range of influence but documentation and some
other areas also do not concern them.
I'm unsure about the effect of this change on the periodic pipeline
execution.

We need to know if the latest changes in the libc (that is dynamically
linked to the binary) causes problems in containers based on older
releases of Fedora.
The estimate of the version numbers is very crude and does not follow
the upstream schedule. That should not be a problem, though.
A part of an existing test has been reused and made into a helper
function to implement this.
This increases the run time of the test suite on Rawhide which already
takes longer than the same test suite on released versions of Fedora.
Make up for it by increasing the timeout by 2 minutes.

There is no significant benefit in keeping this configuration separated.
Now the to-be installed packages are tracked in a single place and the
test playbooks only call the relevant tests.

We now have some Go unit tests[0] and we should use them. By adding a
new test case to Meson, the existing CI job called "shellcheck" has no
longer an accurate name. With this it has been renamed to "unit-test".
Also, the job is now more important and therefore should also be used
for gating.

Not all tests are the same and the ones we're currently running are
system tests. Also the mention of 'podman-stable' is not that important
because we're using the version in the 'stable' stream of Fedora
releases.

Toolbox requires Go 1.13, while Fedora 30 only has Go 1.12.17.
Therefore the test environment needs to be upgraded to something more
recent.
Otherwise, the test fails with:
note: module requires Go 1.13
The name of the go-md2man package changed in Fedora 31, and hence had
to be updated.

This adds several .yaml files that specify jobs (those in folder
playbooks) and one that serves as the main config (.zuul.yaml).
Tests and builds are currently executed on every change in PRs (ie.,
check and gating) and periodically (according to the documentation
this pipeline should be run at least once a day).
There are 4 tests in total:
1. 'ninja test' - does the same thing that Travis did
2. Fedora 30 - runs the system tests with current Podman and Toolbox
in Fedora 30
3. Fedora 31 - the same but for Fedora 31
4. Fedora Rawhide - the same but for Fedora Rawhide
