Description
Current automation expects the firefox RPM to come from the target-systems' default DNF repositories (e.g., "AppStream"). Automation should be extended to allow installation from custom DNF repositorys (public alternative repos or formula-users' privately-owned repositories)

Research direction
Start by locating the current Firefox RPM installation logic in the SaltStack formula and reviewing how it selects the target system's default DNF repositories. Extend the repository configuration so custom public or privately owned repositories can be used, then verify that Firefox can be installed from a non-default DNF repository.
