osbuild/images testing information

./test/configs/ contains configuration files for building images for testing. The files are used by the following tools:

./cmd/build takes a config file as argument to build an image. For example:

sudo go run ./cmd/build -output ./buildtest -rpmmd /tmp/rpmmd -distro fedora-38 -image qcow2 -config test/configs/embed-containers.json

will build a Fedora 38 qcow2 image using the configuration specified in the file embed-containers.json

./cmd/gen-manifests generates manifests based on the configs specified in ./test/config-map.json. The config map maps configuration files to image types and also sets a default configuration for any image type that's not specified.

The config map is also used in CI to dynamically generate test builds using the ./test/cases/generate-build-config scripts.
