Restructure low level topic (iso_to_usb)

Browse Source 
The low level topic references information from the base
topic. In this case the name of the previously built image.
I think we should provide information on each low level
topic which references information from a base topic.

* how to build an ISO image
* how to run it with QEMU
* how to dump the resulting ISO image on an USB stick
In KIWI all generated ISO images are created to be hybrid. This means,
the image can be used as a CD/DVD or as a disk. This works because
the ISO image also has a partition table embedded. With more and more
computers delivered without a CD/DVD drive this becomes important.
The very same ISO image can be copied onto a USB stick and used as a
bootable disk.
A Live ISO image is a system on a removable media, e.g CD/DVD or USB stick.
Once built and deployed it boots off from this media without interferring
with other system storage components. A useful pocket system for testing
and demo and debugging purposes.
The following example shows how to build a live ISO image based on

After the test was successful, the image is complete and ready to use.
