Description of problem:

In the System Templates UI, when a user selects a package (e.g. [product-X] => Packages => [package-Y]) to add to a template, the UI will send an 'auto_complete_locker' request to Katello to retrieve/validate the package.  In the current implementation, the UI packages_controller will use the pulp API (Pulp::Package.name_search) to retrieve the details; however, for efficiency, we'd like to use elastic search to perform this (e.g. Glue::Pulp::Package.name_search).  

Unfortunately, the API using elastic search does not return the correct result.  In many cases, the package is not found which will result in the behavior described by bug 773454.  

After initial investigation, it appears that this may be related to the indexing of packages not occurring properly.  The indexing occurs after a repo sync completes (app/models/repository.rb - index_packages).

For example, 

- sync a repo (e.g. rhel-6)

- from rails console, query all packages:
 
  irb(main):025:0> s = Tire.search('katello_package') {query {all}}

  irb(main):024:0> s.results.length
  => 10

  Given the above search, we should see several thousand packages returned.
