This reverts commit e8e4298fea.
ensuregroup allows to specify both the acceptable versions of avocado,
and a locked version to be used when avocado is not installed as a system
pacakge. This lets us install avocado in pyvenv/ using "mkvenv.py" and
reuse the distro package on Fedora and CentOS Stream (the only distros
where it's available).
ensuregroup's usage of "(>=..., <=...)" constraints when evaluating
the distro package, and "==" constraints when installing it from PyPI,
makes it possible to avoid conflicts between the known-good version and
a package plugins included in the distro.
This is because package plugins have "==" constraints on the version
that is included in the distro, and, using "pip install avocado==88.1"
on a venv that includes system packages will result in an error:
avocado-framework-plugin-varianter-yaml-to-mux 98.0 requires avocado-framework==98.0, but you have avocado-framework 88.1 which is incompatible.
avocado-framework-plugin-result-html 98.0 requires avocado-framework==98.0, but you have avocado-framework 88.1 which is incompatible.
But at the same time, if the venv does not include a system distribution
of avocado then we can install a known-good version and stick to LTS
releases.
