Drop CentOS 6 support after November 30, 2020

CentOS 6 EOL date is November 30, 2020. We should decide on it's support for 9_11 and 9_16 (it was dropped on main since the 9.17 epoch started). In GitLab CI, CentOS 6 jobs will only be run for BIND 9.11 and BIND 9.11-S.

Given that v9_16 is still under very active development (DoH) with dependencies being added (libnghttp2), I suggest CentOS 6 is dropped after November 30, 2020 and we spare us the headache of building dependencies (libev) for new BIND dependencies (libnghttp2).

Outstanding tasks:

  • Prepare and send an announcement to bind-users
  • (!4392 (merged)) Drop CentOS 6 jobs from GitLab CI for v9_16
  • (images!90 (merged)) Drop CentOS 6-specific parts from all Packer image recipes
  • (images@68115dde) Drop CentOS 6 support from the packager:rpm Docker image
  • Drop CentOS 6-specific parts from *.spec files for BIND's build prerequisites
  • (isc-private/rpms/bind!14) Drop CentOS 6-specific parts from BIND RPM build scripts
  • (isc-private/rpms/bind!14) Drop CentOS 6-specific parts from BIND RPM test scripts
  • Remove CentOS 6 chroots from Copr before publishing the December releases
  • Update installation instructions on Copr so that they do not include CentOS 6-specific bits
  • Remove all CentOS 6 packages from Cloudsmith (after a few months); update "Due date" according to the next task
  • Remove all CentOS 6 artifacts (Docker, Packer, ...) after BIND 9.11 EOL
