Major Hayden 8868011d4c Disable repo GPG checks by default
Enable repo GPG checks causes some CentOS systems to become unable to
retrieve yum metadata. It also causes the security gate jobs to balloon
out to 12 minutes (normally 3-4 mins).

The STIG requires that repository XML files are verified during ``yum`` runs.
.. warning::
This setting is disabled by default because it can cause issues with CentOS
systems and prevent them from retrieving repository information. Deployers
who choose to enable this setting should test it thoroughly on
non-production environments before applying it to production systems.
Deployers can override this default and opt in for the change by setting the
following Ansible variable:
.. code-block:: yaml
security_enable_gpgcheck_repo: yes
