Error in resolution of name of common package list during prestage preparation

[Shrikumar Sharma]

Brief Description
When the script "prestage-prepare-packages.sh" is invoked, it requires
two files for execution. The script is unable to locate the list of
packages in the current release because we use a regular expression to
search for the name instead of a prefix consisting of a specific id.

Severity
Critical

Steps to Reproduce
Install the script as a patch (along with the two data files) onto stx.6.0
based systemcontroller.

Expected Behavior
The script should be able to locate the files.

Actual Behavior
The script is unable to locate one of the files.

Reproducibility
100% reproducible

    List of packages in current release not found during prestage
    package preparation

    When the script prestage-prepare-packages.sh is run, it attempts
    to locate a file containing the names of packages and their
    checksums in a given release. The script would fail even if
    the file exists in /usr/local/share/pkg-list. The solution is
    to look for the exact file and not just for files ending in
    _packages_list.txt.

    Test Plan:
    PASS: Verify that the file is correctly resolved when the script
          is run and the file exists at /usr/local/share/pkg-list.
