Description

We have packages for these distros and the Salt installer at least some support for them too. We should test that it actually works on at least one of them.

There are some conditional checks for CentOS 7 in the following files that I believe would be better written as checks for "this is a Red Hat-family distro generally." I have left them in the Salt installer even after #21361 to make the current logic easier to follow.

$ git grep -lEie 'centos' -e 'debian.?10' -e 'ubuntu.?18' tools/salt-install/
