* Cirrus: Simplify only_if/skip + optimize multiarchChris Evich2022-06-07
Using both the 'skip' and 'only_if' features at the same time may be hard for maintainers to decipher. Consolidate them into `only_if` since that bypasses creation of the task all together - meaning there are potentially fewer tasks for a developer to scroll through. Since the `multiarch` Cirrus-Cron build no-longer depends on the direct "build-ability" from the current repo. state, it can be further optimized. When operating in this context, avoid running many/most other tasks, depending instead only on `ext_svc_check`. Finally, add a simple document describing the various runtime contexts along with the list of expected tasks. Reference this prominently right in front of every `only_if` so it's impossible for a maintainer to miss. Signed-off-by: Chris Evich <cevich@redhat.com>
