    Repo files need special care in that a whole line should not be present
    if there is no value for it. Because we were using `format()` we could
    not conditionally add a line for a repo file. So the end result would
    contain a key with a missing value (say if we were passing `None`).

    For example, it could look like::

        [ceph repo]
        name= ceph repo
        proxy=
        gpgcheck=

    Which breaks. This function allows us to conditionally add lines,
    preserving an order and be more careful.

    Previously, and for historical purposes, this is how the template used
    to look::

        custom_repo =
        [{repo_name}]
        name={name}
        baseurl={baseurl}
