The branding package name doesn't always match the product name. This
saves the branding package names as discovered in the enabled repos and
exposes it to the templates as branding.release and branding.logos --
which could potentially be None so the template needs to take that into
account.

Creating /proc/modules just quiets one dracut warning, it doesn't
actually effect the initrd that is created.
Now that mock is being run with netsharedpath set to exclude /proc is
causes problems for running lorax inside a mock, so just remove this to
prevent a crash when it doesn't exist.

The host system can run out of space while running mksquashfs, and while
this is logged to program.log it isn't detected by lorax or
livemedia-creator so it will continue running, possibly reporting
unrelated errors and causing confusion.
This adds checks for the return status when calling mksquashfs, logs it
to the log, and either exits or raises an error immediately.
Add dmsquash-live-ntfs to the default dracut modules in livecd builds.
The omission of this is probably why:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1449410
didn't work out as intended (I suspect it was closed unfixed).
Without this, initramfs winds up with the ntfs-3g tools lying
around, but no hooks cause them to actually get used.
AFAICT, this is a legit bugfix, not a "proposed enhancement"
so to speak. To test that this actually fixed the problem (well,
/a/ problem, at least), I used some scripts:

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
This option will create an optionally compressed tarball containing a
disk image. This format is used by Google's Compute Engine.
This also adds a new option, tar_disk_name, to set the name of the disk
image that will be wrapped in the final tarball. opts.image_name
continues to be the final output file name.
If provided, round the disk image size up to a multiple of the value.
This allows for image formats with specific size-alignment requirements
(e.g., disk size must be in GiB).
reqpart can be used to make kickstarts more platform agnostic, creating
needed partitions without lmc having to keep track of the arch-specific
needs. eg. ppc64 needs prepboot and /boot
This increases the size of the disk based on whether reqpart or
reqpart --add-boot is in the kickstart.
Note that this is only valid for partitioned disk output types, not
for filesystem images or live iso output.
In addition to monitoring the logs for errors, call a function (or
functions) that tell it to cancel the anaconda process and cleanup.
Also check for a cancel after creating the squashfs image for live-iso
since that's a long running process.
This required adding a new argument to a number of existing functions,
passing it down to QEMUInstall and novirt_install where the function is
called.

Make runtime directly into squashfs image. This reduces largely
unreproducible ext4 layer, but requires anaconda's dracut module
modification to properly mount the image.
This moves everything except the cmdline checking into run_creator in
pylorax.creator
It also rearranges some functions to prevent import loops, and adds a
utility function to imgutils (mkfsimage_from_disk for copying a
partition into a filesystem image).
This reduces the amount of code in livemedia-creator to the cmdline
parsing and calling of the installer functions. Moving them into other
modules will allow them to be used by other projects, like the
lorax-composer API server.
