The upload-afs role is actually fairly specialised for uploading docs with its root-marker scheme. As we're moving more parts of our infrastructure to publish via AFS I think it's worth making this quite explicit by renaming the upload-afs role to upload-afs-roots. This should be transparent as we call the renamed role, and once callers have been migrated we can use the usual deprecation process. Add a partner role, upload-afs-synchronize, which is more of a straight copy with options to synchronize. This will be suitable for uploading tarball and release artifacts. This is similar in concept to the promotion job used by zuul [1], but in this case will be focused on the extant publishing jobs in project-config which don't currently use the artifact-reporting/promote process.

Copy contents from
{{ zuul.executor.work_root }}/artifacts/
to AFS
This is intented for documentation publishing, it deletes files that do not exist in the content from the source.
Before the job rsyncs the build into its final location, it must first create a list of directories that should not be deleted. This way if an entire directory is removed from a document, it will still be removed from the website, but directories which are themselves roots of other documents (for example, the stein branch) are not removed. A marker file, called .root-marker, at the root of each such directory will accomplish this; therefore each build job should also ensure that it leaves such a marker file at the root of its build. The job will find each of those in the destination hierarchy and add their containing directories to a list of directories to exclude from rsyncing.
