Merge labels of os and arch into one label

Current situation

Currently when a chroot like fedora-40-x86_64 and rhel-8-aarch64 fail to build we add these labels to the daily issue: os/fedora-40, arch/x86_64, os/rhel-9, arch/aarch64.

Problem

With the aforementioned labels it becomes impossible to tell if rhel-9 also failed on x86_64.

Proposal

I think it makes sense to just use the chroot names of a failing build and use them instead. For example: build_failed/fedora-40-x86_64 build_failed/rhel-9-aarch64. This would be similar to the labels we assign for tested_on/fedora-40-x86_64` for example.

In order to not remove the labels from the old issues I suggest we keep the old labels (e.g. os/fedora-40) around for a bit longer.

Open questions:

  • Once a chroot (e.g. fedora-40-x86_64) is ready to be tested with testing farm, we file a request and put the in_testing/fedora-40-x86_64 label on the issue. This can be changed into tested_on/fedora-40-x86_64 (when successful) or failed_on/fedora-40-x86_64 (for failures). Given this background, I suggest that we have building_on/fedora-40-x86_64 and built_on/fedora-40-x86_64 as well. This allows us to see when chroots go EOL for example.

Tasks

If we can agree to the proposal, these are the tasks necessary:

The build_failed part of this sounds reasonable to me.

Once a chroot (e.g. fedora-40-x86_64) is ready to be tested with testing farm, we file a request and put the in_testing/fedora-40-x86_64 label on the issue. This can be changed into tested_on/fedora-40-x86_64 (when successful) or failed_on/fedora-40-x86_64 (for failures). Given this background, I suggest that we have building_on/fedora-40-x86_64 and built_on/fedora-40-x86_64 as well. This allows us to see when chroots go EOL for example.

I'd like this to go the other way, with tested_on being removed, so we only get labels for failure conditions. I don't think having labels for success cases is useful, but it makes the label list a lot longer.

For copr builds we only list failed builds with build_failed_on/<chroot> now. For testing farm requests being able to be re-run with retest <chroot> I wanted to keep the labels the way they are (flipping state).
