Hard integrate UI stories

[Etheryte]

What does this PR change?

Background

This change set requires some historic context. A long time ago we used to use Storybook for frontend stories to aid in UI development. Storybook worked fine when it did work, but it had two major issues: Dependabot and breaking changes.

Since Storybook has a very large dependency tree, it would give us a lot of security issues in Dependabot. While these are development dependencies, we have customers who scan the whole repo and their compliance department is unhappy with those flags. Since all of these issues are far detached form us, keeping things clean at all times proved to be an overwhelming amount of work.

The other side is breaking changes. With every major release, Storybook changed some api or some config, which again gave us more busywork without much upside. At the same time, we needed to keep up with the updates since we needed to cross out Dependabot issues.

In short, a lot of extra work that did not give us much upside. This led us to try React Styleguidist, but this approach had roughly all the same problems than the previous approach. Not much doing on this particular occasion.

What is this pull request

This pull request ditches the latter and adds a simple page which renders our already existing stories. This has a number of benefits:

• no extra dependencies
• we don't need a separate frontend build pipeline which we need to keep working (both Storybook and Styleguidist require this)
• Typescript support in stories
• whenever the product builds, stories also build

The downsides:

• not feature rich
• makes our single frontend build a bit more complex, but nothing crazy

This aims to deliver two core things, one to considerably reduce maintenance overhead to keep stories working, and two to ensure stories are always up to date with the rest of the product. While we lose features that Storybook and the like provide, this way we can at least have it working, which is better than the option that it's fancy, but doesn't work.

If there is additional functionality we need, it's mostly straightforward to add ourselves.

How to review this PR

Please note that the target branch for this PR is not master, but is instead the Bootstrap migration feature branch, since it relies on changes from that branch.

The change set is big, but nearly all of it is just automatic refactoring changes. To make reviewing easier, I've split it up into commits that are reasonable to look at separately.

For Java:

• a0c9ac8 adds a new bare bones controller for the UI stories page

For frontend:

• 053d67c adds build time tooling to gather and inject all stories as imports to the stories page
• 3f09a46 adds the page that renders the stories
• eee57d4 restructures directories and moves all story files to the new format, nearly everything here is just the same change across many many files

[github-actions]

👋 Hello! Thanks for contributing to our project.
Acceptance tests will take some time (aprox. 1h), please be patient ☕
You can see the progress at the end of this page and at https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/pull/9220/checks
Once tests finish, if they fail, you can check 👀 the cucumber report. See the link at the output of the action.
You can also check the artifacts section, which contains the logs at https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/pull/9220/checks.

If you are unsure the failing tests are related to your code, you can check the "reference jobs". These are jobs that run on a scheduled time with code from master. If they fail for the same reason as your build, it means the tests or the infrastructure are broken. If they do not fail, but yours do, it means it is related to your code.

Reference tests:

• https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/actions/workflows/acceptance_tests_secondary_parallel.yml?query=event%3Aschedule

• https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/actions/workflows/acceptance_tests_secondary.yml?query=event%3Aschedule

KNOWN ISSUES

Sometimes the build can fail when pulling new jar files from download.opensuse.org . This is a known limitation. Given this happens rarely, when it does, all you need to do is rerun the test. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Happy hacking!
