extensions: use Fedora as a builder #1004
Conversation
RHEL doesn't ship `createrepo_c`, so we were using CentOS Stream 8 for that. Then we hit on the fact that C8S doesn't exist for s390x, so switched to C9S. But RHEL9 made a push to require newer hardware baselines. This is problematic for parts of the RHCOS pipeline which are deployed on Power8 hardware. So...Fedora hasn't made the hardware baseline switches, so for now let's just use that as a lowest common denominator. The base image and packages exist on all architectures we care about.
