RTECO-945: Wire jf apk commands and e2e tests

[naveenku-jfrog]

Summary

Wires the Alpine APK integration into the JFrog CLI frontend: registers jf apk subcommands, adds CLI flags, package aliasing (Ghost Frog), and a comprehensive e2e test suite. This is the user-facing entry point for the full Alpine APK feature.

Depends on:

• build-info-go#393
• jfrog-cli-artifactory#496

---

What Changed

buildtools/cli.go

• ApkCmd() — dispatches jf apk config, jf apk upload, and all native apk subcommands (add, upgrade, etc.)
• Extracts JFrog-specific flags (--repo, --server-id, --alpine-version, --user, --password, --build-name, --build-number, --module, --project) before forwarding remaining args to native apk
• Fail-fast on unknown --server-id: if --server-id is explicitly provided but not found in the config, the command errors immediately — consistent with jf npm, jf pip, jf mvn, etc.
• Falls back to the default server silently when --server-id is omitted (allows jf apk add to work without Artifactory for basic usage)

utils/cliutils/commandsflags.go

• New Apk flag group: --repo, --server-id, --alpine-version, --user, --password, --build-name, --build-number, --module, --project

docs/buildtools/apkcommand/help.go

• GetDescription(), GetAIDescription(), Usage, GetArguments() for jf apk help text and AI help coverage

packagealias/packagealias.go

• Registers apk as a Ghost Frog package alias so jf apk add curl works identically to jfrog apk add curl — consistent with npm, pip, mvn, etc.

apk_test.go

Full end-to-end test suite (35 test cases) covering:

Category	Tests
Basic build-info	NoBuildFlags, WithBuildFlags, BuildNameFromEnvVars
Dependency collection	DepIDFormat, DepChecksums, DepRequestedBy, TransitiveDeps
Scopes	ScopeProduction, ScopeTransitive
Repo / server config	MissingRepo, InvalidRepo, UnknownServerID, ArtifactoryUnreachable, VirtualRepoAggregates
Upload	Upload, UploadWithBuildInfo, CIVCSPropertiesStamped
Config	Config, ConfigMissingServerID
Env vars	EnvVarsFiltered, EnvVarsIncluded
Multi-package	MultiPackageInstall, MultiPackageBuildInfo
Idempotency	IdempotentAdd
Error handling	ApkBinaryMissing

.github/workflows/apkTests.yml

CI workflow that runs all TestApk* tests against a matrix of Alpine versions (v3.18, v3.19, v3.20, v3.21):

• Compiles the test binary on ubuntu-24.04 (where Go 1.26 is available)
• Runs the pre-built static binary inside each alpine:<version> Docker container to get a real apk binary
• Spins up a local Artifactory instance via install-local-artifactory
• Triggered via workflow_call and workflow_dispatch

scripts/test-apk-local.sh

Helper script for running Alpine APK e2e tests locally on macOS via Docker (mounts the repo and ~/.jfrog config into a golang:alpine container).

Design Notes

--repo is optional: Consistent with jf npm install and jf pip install, omitting --repo does not block build-info collection. Checksums are always available from the APK database (C: field). AQL enrichment (for SHA-256/MD5) is skipped when no repo is specified.

Test infrastructure: Tests require the apk binary (Alpine Linux). The workflow compiles a static Linux binary on the host and runs it inside Alpine Docker containers, avoiding Go version constraints in Alpine package repos.

AI help coverage: jf apk is wired through corecommon.ResolveDescription to satisfy the TestAIHelpCoverageGenerated check.
