Python will eventually close open files, but it is recommended to
explicitly close them instead of waiting for the gc or program exit.
This fixes all the uses of open...read/write in the codebase, mostly in
tests.
In python 3 f.seek() on text doesn't work like it does in py2/C because
text is now unicode. So change read_tail to use byte mode and take
unicode into account. Also add tests for it.
lorax uses pyanaconda's SimpleConfigParser in three different
places (twice with a copy that's been dumped into pylorax, once
by importing it), just to do a fairly simple job: read some
values out of /etc/os-release. The only value SimpleConfigParser
is adding over Python's own ConfigParser here is to read a file
with no section headers, and to unquote the values. The cost is
either a dependency on pyanaconda, or needing to copy the whole
of simpleparser plus some other utility bits from pyanaconda
into lorax. This seems like a bad trade-off.
This changes the approach: we copy one very simple utility
function from pyanaconda (`unquote`), and do some very simple
wrapping of ConfigParser to handle reading a file without any
section headers, and returning unquoted values. This way we can
read what we need out of os-release without needing a dep on
pyanaconda or to copy lots of things from it into pylorax.

Fix up 2to3 complaints. I've decided to do with wrapping list
comprehension inside list() to get the generators to run in several
places instead of list(map( or list(filter( which seem less readable to
me.
When I switched execution over to execWith* functions I failed to
account for the use of CalledProcessError in various places. This
patch restores that behavior. All places that used check_call or
check_output now pass raise_err=True to the execWith* call.
Switch to using execWith* so that the command and its output can be
logged. To capture the output setup a logger named "program"
livemedia-creator captures all of this into program.log
This adds the remove() function, which works a lot like rm -rf - if you
remove() a file, it uses os.unlink, and if you remove() a directory it
uses shutils.rmtree().
The way we create the images had to be changed a little.
Some code had to be moved to other places, so we can create
images for other architectures too.
Create the directories in advance to copying files,
not later, becase this caused some destination path
problems, like not appending the filename to the
destination directory, because it didn't exist.
