I don't think we should do that. Part of creating the feature matrix in
devstack gate included the follow on idea of doing extension selection
based on branch or feature.

I'm happy if that gets finished, then tests are skipped by known not
working extensions, but just landing a ton of tempest ifdefs that will
all be removed is feeling very gorpy. Especially as we're now at Juno 2,
which was supposed to be the checkpoint for this being "on track for
completion" and... people are just talking about starting.

All the rest is fine, I just think we should work on the proper way to
skip things.
