Update all alma10, ol10, and rocky10 netboot symlinks to reference
the new rhels10 base files. Fixes service otherpkgs pointing to
wrong xcat-dep path (rh9 instead of rh10).
Create proper rhels10 versions of exlist, postinstall, service
pkglist, and service otherpkgs files instead of reusing rhels9.
Key differences from rhels9:
- service otherpkgs: xcat-dep path rh9 -> rh10
- service pkglist: drop dhclient (NetworkManager handles DHCP)
Compute exlist and postinstall are identical to rhels9 for now but
kept separate to allow EL10-specific changes without affecting EL9.
Add compute and service profile symlinks for alma10, following the
existing pattern used by alma8 and alma9. Also add the missing
dracut_105 symlink required by EL10's dracut v107.
Tested with BIOS and UEFI stateless provisioning on AlmaLinux 10.1.
Address ShellCheck warnings across go-xcat without breaking
distro detection. Key changes:
- Replace source /etc/os-release with awk parsing that strips
quotes, fixing detection on distros that quote ID/VERSION_ID
- Use $() instead of backticks for command substitution
- Quote $1 and file path variables in dnf/yum repo version checks
- Use ${FUNCNAME[0]} instead of ${FUNCNAME} for dispatch calls
- Fix $@ vs $* usage in string contexts (warn_if_bad, el9 check)
- Remove useless use of cat (UUOC) in pipe chains
- Escape $releasever/$basearch/$stream in CRB repo echo
- Use xargs instead of unquoted command substitution in rm
- Split local declaration and assignment per SC2155
- Fix minor typos (secert -> secret, preform -> perform)

Add a shared OMAPI policy helper for ISC DHCP and DDNS so administrators can select the key name, signing algorithm, and omshell path from the site table while preserving the existing xcat_key hmac-md5 default.
Keep local ISC updates from hanging indefinitely when omshell does not exit, and use a static host-declaration fallback for local Ubuntu ISC releases where omshell is unstable for xCAT host updates.

The xCAT-server build-readme script runs every tool in share/xcat/tools/
with --help during RPM packaging. At build time perl-xCAT is not installed,
so the compile-time 'use xCAT::DHCP::Backend' aborts before --help can run.
Switch to runtime require inside the remove-operation branch where the
module is actually needed.
Docker container lifecycle management (mgt=docker, mkdocker, rmdocker,
lsdocker) was added in 2015-2016 as an experiment targeting Docker API
v1.22 on Ubuntu only. Documentation and man pages were deliberately
removed in 2019 (PRs #6222 and #6324) with the original developer's
approval, noting that "the interface of Docker has become very simple
right now, so there is no value for xCAT to offer such functions."
The plugin was still being shipped but has had no functional code changes
since April 2016, was never listed as a valid mgt value in Schema.pm,
and no user ever filed an issue about it.
Removed:
- xCAT-server/lib/xcat/plugins/docker.pm (1,142 lines)
- xCAT/postscripts/setupdockerhost
- xCAT-server/share/xcat/scripts/setup-dockerhost-cert.sh
- xCAT-test/autotest/testcase/dockercommand/ (test cases)
- Docker attribute definitions in Schema.pm
- Client symlinks (mkdocker, rmdocker, lsdocker)
- Usage entries and dockerhost cert handling in credentials.pm
- Docker attribute documentation in man7 pages
The "Running xCAT in Docker" documentation (dockerized_xcat/) is
retained as it documents containerizing xCAT itself, not the removed
mgt=docker feature.
Closes#7518
