Summary

since jenkins-infra/packer-images@7a2b820 (#1143) that is able to exclude windows 2022 but still test windows 2019
the updatecli process fail as the yaml file is no longer a correct yaml.

Reproduction steps

No response

when using the scalar block:

skip: |
    {{ not (eq .Env.AGENT_OS_VERSION "2019") }}

updatecli is not complaining anymore and the yaml parsing go through
HOWEVER the goss templating is falling :

yaml: unmarshal errors:
 line 62: cannot unmarshal !!str `false
` into bool

if I put it back on one line:

skip: {{ not (eq .Env.AGENT_OS_VERSION "2019") }}

goss is working fine but then updatecli complain:

ERROR: something went wrong in target "updateJDK21VersionInGoss" : "updating yaml file: parsing yaml file: [62:12] unexpected mapping key\n      59 |     exit-status: 0\n      60 |     stdout:\n      61 |       - /16\\.\\d+\\.\\d+\\.\\d+/\n    > 62 |     skip: {{ not (eq .Env.AGENT_OS_VERSION \"2019\") }}\n                      ^\n      63 | file:\n      64 |   C:\\Program Files\\Chromium\\Application\\:\n      65 |     contains: []"

which is weird as the yaml file is seen as good with yaml online parser ... maybe this is coming from the library used by updatecli to parse yaml: https://github.com/goccy/go-yaml or a wrong behavior from goss

EDIT: setting yamlpath as the updatecli yaml engine solve the problem, but it need to be done on each file updating the goss yaml file.

I did open an issue on goss : goss-org/goss#913

for now the updatecli is more important for us to keep our image uptodate so I kept the scalar block version even if it mean to skip the goss test for visualstudio
