Add new metadata keys to the validation playbooks
This patch adds two new metadata keys to the validation playbooks:
- categories: A list of technical tags
- products: A list of targeted products (here mainly TripleO)

This patch is also part of the Validation Metadata Evolution for the
Validations Framework.

name: RHEL8.x kernel flag for Compute nodes validation
description: |
RHEL-8.3 kernel disabled the Intel TSX (Transactional
Synchronization Extensions) feature by default as a preemptive
security measure, but it breaks live migration from RHEL-7.9
(or even RHEL-8.1 or RHEL-8.2) to RHEL-8.3.
Operators are expected to explicitly define the TSX flag in
their KernelArgs for the compute role to prevent live-migration
issues during the upgrade process.
This also impacts upstream CentOS systems.
