Experience this week has shown that managing .diff files
is too difficult for humans, and too fragile. Opportunities
for errors abound. So, let's try to minimize the diffs.
We can't eliminate the diffs to helpers.bash: those are
true code changes that are absolutely required for running
tests using podman instead of buildah. We need to carry
those ourselves: they are not appropriate for the buildah
repo itself.
What we can do is simplify the patching of bud.bats. That
is fragile, because bud.bats changes often, and context-
sensitive git patch files can easily get confused.
Recognizing that the changes to bud.bats fall under two types:
- tests that are skipped
- tests in which podman error messages differ from buildah's
...we now have a new script, apply-podman-deltas, which
is (I hope) much user-friendlier. It understands two directives:
errmsg - alter the expected error message
skip - skip a test
Both operate based on a bats test name. The test name must
match exactly. These directives use 'sed' to update bud.bats.
If any directive fails, the script will keep going (so you
get as many errors as possible in a run), then exits failure.
Instructions (README.md) now explain the process for dealing
with all expected test failures.
(Sneak checkin: add '--filter=NAME' option to test runner,
allowing for targeted and much shorter test runs).

Set of scripts to run buildah's bud.bats test using
podman build in podman CI.
podman build is not 100% compatible with buildah bud.
In particular:
* podman defaults to --layers=true; buildah to false
* podman defaults to --force-rm=true; buildah to false
* podman error exit status is 125; buildah is 2
* differences in error messages, command-line arguments
Some of the above can be dealt with programmatically,
by tweaking the buildah helpers.bash (BATS helpers).
Some need to be tweaked by patching bud.bats itself.
This PR includes a patch that will, I fear, need to
be periodically maintained over time.
There will likely be failures when vendoring in a
new buildah, possibly because new tests were added
for new features that don't exist in podman, possibly
(I hope unlikely) if existing tests are changed in
ways that make the patch file fail to apply. I've
tried to write good instructions and to write the run
script in such a way that it will offer helpful hints
on failure. My instructions and code will be imperfect;
I hope they will be good enough to merit continued use
of this test (possibly with improvements to the instructions
as we learn more about real-world failures).
