waitrepo is used a number of places and can wait for a few different 
conditions:
   - for specific nvrs to appear (chain-build uses this)
   - for a repo newer the a specific timestamp (I don't know if anything 
actually uses this right now)
   - for any active repo for the tag (the build task uses this when the 
repo is not immediately available)

The cli wait-repo subcommand doesn't actually create a waitrepo task; it 
handles the logic internally.
