Story #4745

h3. Problem Some plugins like pulp_ansible and pulp_docker have no need for publications since they don't use metadata. Give these plugins a way to attach distributions directly to repo versions. h3. Solution 1. Add a "repository_version" attribute to the "Distribution model":https://github.com/pulp/pulpcore/blob/master/pulpcore/app/models/publication.py#L232 2. Update the content app to serve up content from that RepositoryVersion 3. The "repository_version" and "publication" fields should not be used together and should error somehow. We will also remove the 'publisher' option because we expect it will not be used in 3.0 and will introduce more confusion than value. We will also adjust the auto-distribution behavior as follows: When the Distribution.repository field is set, the Distribution will be updated to have the repository_verison field point at the newly created repository_version. When the Distribution.publisher field is set, the Distribution will be updated to have the publication field point at the newly created publication.
