Subject: [PATCH] Fix problematic tests and allow smooth tests
 executions on containers

* Align boto imports in tests with Salt modules

Some modules `import boto` to set log levels. The related tests don't
import `boto`. This can cause a problem when `boto` is not available.

Tests are skipped when HAS_BOTO in the test_boto_*.py is False. Not
trying to `import boto` can leave HAS_BOTO=True in the test file even
though HAS_BOTO is False on the application side. In this case, tests
are not skipped and fail.

* Fix mock order in test_dig (test_network.py)

`salt.utils.path.which` should not be mocked before `network.__utils__`. The
Salt loader calls `salt.utils.network.linux_interfaces`, which needs the real
`salt.utils.path.which`.

* Fix mock calls

Signed-off-by: Pedro Algarvio <palgarvio@vmware.com>
(cherry picked from commit 3506e7fd0e84320b2873370f1fe527025c244dca)

* Skip venafiapi test if vcert module not available

The same HAS_VCERT check is done in the runner module.

* Moving tests/integration/modules/test_cmdmod.py to pytest, Gareth J Greenaway original author

(cherry picked from commit 2c1040b4c2885efaa86576fd88eb36bb550b5996)

* The repo.saltproject.io `index.html` file changed it's contents. Fix tests.

Signed-off-by: Pedro Algarvio <palgarvio@vmware.com>
(cherry picked from commit 672f6586d7c3cdb0e8c5ee42524895035aafcc23)

* Skip hwclock test when executed inside a container

* Skip git pillar tests when executed inside a container

These tests require a Git repository container, which is hard to correctly set
up when executing the tests in the container in GH Actions.

Using --network host can help, but there was still an error (the git repos were
empty) when I tried to set this up.

* Skip test requiring systemd inside container

* Exclude tests for hgfs if missing hglib

* Skip and fix tests when running on containers

* Fix some failing test causing problem in SUSE environments

* Skip more tests when running on containers

* Use skipif instead of skip_if as it seems not behaving equally

* Skip more tests that cannot run in a container

* Remove SSH test which doesn't make sense after lock mechanism

* Fix failing boto tests

* Skip unmaintained tests upstream around zcbuildout

* Skip some tests that does not run well in GH Actions
