livemedia-creator: add location option

Browse Source 
--location specifies an iso directory tree to be used by virt-install
instead of the iso. This allows you to update the initrd in the tree for
debugging.

virt-install uses the images/pxeboot/ directory for initrd.img and
vmlinux.

An iso is still required for the LiveOS/squashfs.img stage2 file.
