Walkthrough

The CI configuration removes obsolete Vector and Cluster Logging Operator jobs and registry image wiring. It also pins three Cluster Logging Operator base images to 6.6 and makes e2e-using-bundle required.

Cluster Logging CI Configuration

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Pin Cluster Logging base images ci-operator/config/ViaQ/vector/ViaQ-vector-v0.54.0-rh.yaml	The three Cluster Logging Operator base images now use version 6.6.
Remove obsolete image and test wiring ci-operator/config/openshift/cluster-logging-operator/openshift-cluster-logging-operator-master.yaml	The configuration removes the registry image build, the e2e-target test, and the registry image dependency. It makes e2e-using-bundle required.
Remove the retired Vector configuration ci-operator/config/ViaQ/vector/ViaQ-vector-v0.50.0-rh.yaml	The obsolete Vector CI configuration is removed.
