livemedia-creator: Add support for a squashfs only runtime image

Browse Source 
Normally the runtime image is an ext4 filesystem image that is
compressed with squashfs. dracut now supports setting up an overlayfs
when it detects a bare filesystem tree inside the squashfs.

This commit adds support for a --squashfs-only option which places the
root tree directly in the squashfs.img
