These two launchpads should be addressed together:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/starlingx/+bug/1849198
https://bugs.launchpad.net/starlingx/+bug/1849199

since they affect the same package and are addressed in the same package version. Please link both launchpads to the same gerrit review

Add feature to check if a CVE has an open launchpad

This change enables the capability to track if a CVE to be fixed already
has an open launchpad in starlingx: https://bugs.launchpad.net/starlingx/

    This will help the security team to focus on the CVEs that do not
    have a launchpad already open, reducing the overhead of analysis of CVEs
    already presented to the development team.

    Note that rubygem-json is moved back to version 1.7.7-36 as it
    should never have been moved to 2.0.2-2 in the first place. That
    appears to have occurred accidentally, taking the package from
    opstools instead of os when moving to CentOS 7.6.

i40e Driver Upgrade in support of N3000 on-board NICs
    
    Uprev i40e to version 2.10.19.30
    i40evf gets replaced by iavf version 3.7.61.20
    
    The iavf driver supports both fortville and columbiaville,
    so they decided to rename from i40evf to something more generic.
    
    The Intel FPGA Programmable Acceleration Card N3000 contains
    dual Intel XL710 NICs and an FPGA for acceleration purposes.
    This driver upgrade is required to support those NICs.
