## Description:

This update for suse-migration-sle15-activation fixes the following issues:

  * Version update v2.1.9 (bsc#1133919, bsc#1155192, bsc#1209591).
  * Improve root detection, add snapshots on migration for btrfs setup
  * Add missing tests for btrfs services
  * Fix ISO location logic and increase version for SLES15-Migration package
  * Add missing changelog reference for sle16
  * Added tests and fixes for apparmor unit
  * suse-migration-pre-checks fails due to no output for bind mount
    (bsc#1209304)
  * ensure suse-migration-apparmor-selinux is build with poetry
  * Apparmor to selinux for SLE16, new service to migrate from apparmor to
    selinux
  * Prevent auto-reboot once all migration tasks are done
  * Load lvm module in grub mode. If the DMS live ISO loopback boot runs on a
    machine that has root (/) on LVM we need to load lvm in grub to be able to
    read from the root of the toplevel volume (bsc#1173532, bsc#1184278).
  * Fix and cleanup update_bootloader service.
  * Fix BYOS upgrade from 12SP4-SAP to 15 (bsc#1142108)
  * Fixed changes inconsistencies (bsc#1173654).
  * AWS BYOS SLES for SAP 12 SP5 DMS fails (bsc#1234803).
  * Clarify default migration path in the docs, supported migration path in the
    public cloud was hard to understand. Information on migration product
    specifications to overwrite defaults were also added to it.
  * Add --migration-system option to migrate tool.
  * Update build with container version and allow to build migration container
    for SLE16 too. haveged and ifplugd packages no longer exists in SLE16 and
    they are also not needed for the SLE15 container use case.
  * Fix spec file for python migration module, build correct python version
    dependant module package
  * Revert "do not try to install shim on Legacy BIOS".
  * Install migration live image to /migration-image. This change helps to run
    migrations on systems which stores /usr/share in a special way, e.g. as LVM
    volume or other type that cannot be read via the loopback grub or kexec
    method (bsc#1156068, bsc#1182520, bsc#1206194).
  * Add package sources for suse-migration-rpm The suse-migration-rpm package
    contains an OBS hook script which turns the migration live ISO image into a
    package named according to the name of the image name attribute
  * Fix/Refactor DMS packaging
  * Updated documentation files
  * Add success indicator flag file Added /var/log/distro_migration.exitcode to
    be written by the migrate service. The file contains the exit code from the
    zypper process and is used in the migrate tool to know about the overall
    state of the migration process. The migrate tool initializes the flag file
    with a failed value.
  * Fix/Refactor DMS packaging (bsc#1206701).
  * Fixed reading of extra config file
  * Fixed prepare service variable access
  * Open fstab file only if it exists
  * Doc updates to install, migration, and after migration sections
  * update spec file
  * Update migration product key. Change key name and structure. In case of not
    found migration_product key, the migration process will be aborted.
  * Fix typo in doc string
