[qe-core] Guarantee os-autoinst-disti-opensuse (or another metapackage) is all a test developer needs to work.

Description
For a test developer, all they should have to do is to install a single metapackage:

Following https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse/pull/16232, we can have one that installs only what is needed, possibly avoiding os-autoinst but including Perl::Tidy required by os-autoinst (it could be that we can't decouple it) and document it in the contributing guide.
Marking this as an epic for now, hopefully it can be linked to the platform team transition story.

in theory we have a metapackage, but is not in factory yet... but for a test developer the requirements are different:
os-autoinst-distri-opensuse-deps + os-autoinst-devel are needed, along with (possibly) the following change
diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile
index 4235f2230..496639dbf 100644

on the other hand, we can add a specific target for test development?
