Ian Wienand 170b0c0843 openafs-client: use dnf for CentOS 8 
We are seeing some failures that seem to add up to the yum module not
detecting a failure installing the kernel modules for openafs.  See if
this works better with "dnf", which is the native package installer on
CentOS 8.

An ansible role to configure an OpenAFS client

Note

This role uses system packages where available, but for platforms or architectures where they are not available will require external builds. Defaults will pick external packages from OpenStack Infra builds, but you should evaluate if this is suitable for your environment.

This role configures the host to be an OpenAFS client. Because OpenAFS is very reliant on distribution internals, kernel versions and host architecture this role has limited platform support. Currently supported are

  • Debian family with system packages available
  • Ubuntu Xenial with ARM64, with external 1.8 series packages
  • CentOS 7 with external packages
