Description

There has been a lot of work done to help users transition to Chef 15. One thing that helps with this is running cookstyle against a cookbook to see if it has bad patterns that would hinder a move to Chef 15. We should integrate cookstyle into the build so that we fail a build if we hit a bad pattern.

Research direction

Start by locating the scaffolding-chef-infra build and test entry points and checking how cookbook validation currently runs. Integrate Cookstyle so a cookbook with a bad pattern causes the build to fail, then verify the behavior with a cookbook that violates a Cookstyle rule.
