[EPIC] Create Dependency Installation Package for E2E Tests

[josecelano]

Parent Epic: #112 - Refactor and Improve E2E Test Execution

Overview

Convert the bash setup scripts into a Rust package that detects and installs required dependencies. This package provides both a library and CLI binary, making dependency management accessible to AI agents and humans. The work is split into 4 manageable sub-issues (phases).

Sub-Issues

This issue is split into 4 phases:

1. Create Detection Logic Package #114 - Create Detection Logic Package (Phase 1, 2-3 hours)
2. Create CLI Binary with Check Command #115 - Create CLI Binary with Check Command (Phase 2, 2-3 hours)
3. Create Docker Test Infrastructure #116 - Create Docker Test Infrastructure (Phase 3, 2-3 hours)
4. Implement Installation Logic #117 - Implement Installation Logic (Phase 4, 4-5 hours)

Total Time: 10-14 hours

Goals

• Convert bash scripts to Rust package packages/dependency-installer/
• Create reusable library for detection and installation
• Provide CLI binary for manual dependency management
• Make dependency management accessible to AI agents

Key Components

Required Dependencies:

• cargo-machete (unused dependency detection)
• OpenTofu (infrastructure provisioning)
• Ansible (configuration management)
• LXD (VM-based testing)

Package Structure:

• Library: Detection and installation logic
• Binary: CLI commands (check, install, list)
• Tests: Comprehensive unit and Docker-based tests

Acceptance Criteria

• Pre-commit checks pass
• All 4 sub-issues completed successfully
• Package follows packages/linting/ pattern
• CLI binary is functional and tested
• Documentation is complete

Time Estimate

10-14 hours (split into 4 sub-issues of 2-5 hours each)
