Cherrypick of PR: #1143
Description of changes
Before this PR, the entity classes that override the
EntityCreateMixin.create
method return a new instance of thenailgun.entities.ENTITY
class. In robottelo, which wraps each entity class in therobottelo.hosts.DecClass
class, this causes test failures, becausesatellite.api.ENTITY().create()
returns an instance ofrobottelo.hosts.DecClass
for some classes andnailgun.entities.ENTITY
instances for others.This PR updates those
create
methods to return an instance oftype(self)
instead of explicitly naming the class, so that an the same subclass / decorated class is used.No functionality changes.
