Code Review
This pull request adds support for identifying RHEL dist-git sources by checking for the 'pkgs.devel.redhat.com' hostname in the dist-git detector. The review feedback highlights a security concern regarding the use of partial string matching for hostname validation, which could be exploited, and recommends using an exact equality check instead. Additionally, the reviewer requested the inclusion of unit tests to verify the new detection logic and prevent regressions.

This literally just adds RHEL dist-git hostname to detect_distgit_source tool to recognize it as dist-git source. The backport agent depends on this to follow the dist-git workflow which it fails to do otherwise. We've found this scenario plays out when RHEL dist-git patch or commit is explicitly added in Jira comments as the source of the patch to backport.
