The new job definition is in https://review.openstack.org/555034 and I
have updated the oslo.config patch I mentioned before to use the new job
instead of one defined in the oslo.config repo (see
https://review.openstack.org/550603).

I'll wait for that job patch to be reviewed and approved before I start
adding the job to a bunch of other repositories.
