Task update_package_xml does not write correct package.xml for AssignmentRules

[Szandor72]

Describe the bug

We have a DX project that is also deployed against a persistent org. In that case cumulusci deploys from /src after converting DX metadata. Package.xml is also created from /src via update_package_xml

If the DX source contains a Assignment Rule, deployment will fail immediately with:

Update of AssignmentRule package.xml: Error: You cannot install or upgrade a package that has a AssignmentRule component. Remove components of AssignmentRule type from the package.

Upon inspection cci creates the following package.xml:

    <types>
        <members>Case</members>
        <name>AssignmentRule</name>
    </types>

It should use Plural, i.e. AssignmentRules - when manually adding the Plural-s, the deploy tasks succeeds.

(Happy to patch this locally, just need a pointer)

Reproduction steps

1. Create CCI Project with DX Source.
2. Create an Pull an Assignment Rule
3. (observe: no issues pulling/pushing to scratch org)
4. connect cci to a persistent org
5. run deploy against persistent org n. ...

You could try changing this YML file:

https://github.com/SFDO-Tooling/CumulusCI/blob/main/cumulusci/tasks/metadata/metadata_map.yml#L42

Where exactly that file is on your computer is hard for me to predict. I could predict it better if you showed a stacktrace from --debug.

Thanks, @prescod ! Much appreciated, I know where to go and will remember to use --debug in the future.

Should I open a PR ?

[Szandor72]

Thanks a lot, Paul. Will work with --debug in the future. I am able to locate the file on my machine.

Should/Can I open a PR for the fix or will you create a Work Item?
