The EPEL metalink kept selecting mirrors that served stale repodata, 404ing on rotated-away hashes during image build. Pin epel-low-priority to dl.fedoraproject.org for consistent, current metadata.

Just changing it to get CI pass on my PR. Currently facing the following issue with mirror:

[nova/nova-scheduler] error: cannot update repo 'epel-low-priority': Yum repo downloading error: Downloading error(s): repodata/9933361456bdd3fb702a23326fce846fbef97faba807180ee27838d387762ec1-primary.xml.zst - Cannot download, all mirrors were already tried without success; repodata/740a9b644a27dd1b871a27d03d665204ed4e118209c385e5180a8b49ad0e7f15-updateinfo.xml.zst - Cannot download, all mirrors were already tried without success; Last error: Status code: 404 for https://ca.mirrors.cicku.me/epel/10.3/Everything/x86_64/repodata/9933361456bdd3fb702a23326fce846fbef97faba807180ee27838d387762ec1-primary.xml.zst (IP: 172.65.90.4)
