Use the `retry_options` already being used for the Salt minion service,
since we're getting failures such as this one:
* https://github.com/myii/salt-formula/runs/2415072504
This is made worse by the fact that GitHub Actions cannot re-run a
single job (at the current time).
Right now when you set module_config entries in your pillar data
like this:
salt:
minion:
module_config:
smtp.from: 'Kali Salt <admins+salt@kali.org>'
smtp.to: 'Kali Admins <admins+salt@kali.org>'
smtp.host: localhost
smtp.subject: 'Results of salt actions on'
smtp.fields: id,fun
On each run, you will always a different ordering of the various
fields in the minion configuration file, leading to spurious restart
of the minion and admin annoyance:

With the change here, this bad behaviour is gone...
Make the upstream salt package repository selectable, thus allowing the
use of archived salt versions (hosted in
https://archive.repo.saltproject.io), as well as custom salt versions
hosted in alternate repositories.
* CVE-2021-25283 enables Jinja2 safe mode, which breaks use of
`'dict' in x.__class__.__name__` workaround
* Workaround no longer needed as CentOS 6 is EOL
Use ugly `zypper lr --uri` hack to get around failure if the `base_url`
already exists under a different name:

When running a high-state on the salt-master to deploy itself, the run fails
with an Authentication error occurred because the master restarts half way though.
Instead of the default service.running + enabled, you can control
the actual state, via pillar.
And you can even say 'state = ignore' and no state will be generated
to control the service
