The inline repo definition pinned gpgkey to www.centos.org, a single
non-CDN origin. In run 30937913632 it was unreachable for at least
17m25s and killed 2 of 23 centos ganesha installs; dnf's own retries=5
was already active on the host and did not help.
centos-release-nfs-ganesha11 ships the same repo with metalink failover
and gpgkey=file://, planting the key through Requires:
centos-release-storage-common. Verified end to end against
quay.io/centos/centos:latest and ghcr.io/kevinveenbirkenbach/pkgmgr-centos:stable.
The BOOTSTRAP_BASEURL entry keeps the availability probe verifying both
names instead of degrading them to an inconclusive warning.

categories.yml moves from roles/ to the repository-root meta/, joining packages.yml. utils/roles/categories.py owns its location plus the tree-walking helpers that were stranded in entity/name.py, so no caller spells the path or duplicates the lookup.
meta/distros.yml becomes the SPOT for every distribution: os_family, Galaxy platform name, dev-environment base image, and the pkgmgr/pkgmgr-virgin/environment reference templates. It replaces seven scattered copies (DISTRO_FAMILY, VALID_DISTROS, _DISTROS, _CANONICAL_PLATFORMS, two shell arrays, a Makefile literal). INFINITO_DISTROS is no longer a static default but generated by utils/env/handlers/infinito/distros.py; the shell consumers read it through the env layer.
Drops dead CLI surface found along the way: --categories-file and --roles-dir on the provision CLI plus three unused parameters of generate_dynamic_inventory, and the positional roles_file of the invokable categories command.
tests/lint/repository/test_distros_spot.py pins the copies that cannot call the SPOT (workflow literals, docs table) and forbids composing a pkgmgr reference outside it.

A role states which package it needs; the registry owns every distribution
mapping and every acquisition path. Declarations live in the repository-root
meta/packages.yml when more than one consumer installs them, and in a role's
own meta/packages.yml otherwise.
schema.py owns the declaration shape, registry.py finds and indexes the
declarations, plan.py turns a resolved spec into ordered module calls, and the
package_install action plugin only executes them. Keeping the plan pure makes
every acquisition path unit-testable without an Ansible connection:
distribution repositories, the AUR with its unprivileged build user, COPR, PPA,
an EPEL bootstrap package, the pacman multilib section and source builds.
The data is guarded by lints: a package id and a concrete distribution package
name each belong to exactly one declaration, a role installs only its own or
shared ids, every id resolves for all five default distributions with an
empty mapping justified by a nocheck, declarations read in ascending order,
every plan builds and names only whitelisted modules, and an external test
queries the real package indexes of all five distributions.
This commit adds the mechanism and the shared collection; no consumer uses it
yet.
