[JIRA] (OVIRT-1441) [RFE] Add a jenkins job for copying external packages to static repos

[Eyal Edri]

I think we need to remove the static repos completely [1], they already
caused problems in the past which are hard to debug sometimes.
We need a very good reason to want to copy packages manually into oVirt
repos,

There should be 2 options:

1. Add a new project via yaml and build-artifacts so the project will be
built as any other oVirt project, and a build will be done on any commit.
2. If this comes from external source, then we should strive to use an
externa repo for it ( which will be mirrored to ovirt-mirrors )

If the use case isn't one of the above we need to understand it and decide
what is the best solution for it, before we start implementing workaround
jobs to deploy static rpms.
