commit 4699c88109 changed how the disk
size is estimated and not all users took into account that the return
value is in MiB.
This would result in qemu based iso installations having a rootfs.img
that was 1024x too large.
Some images are becoming REALLY large. When a file is >= 4GiB we need to
pass -allow-limited-size to mkisofs to tell it to make a UDF image. Note
that the manpage says that this may result in it not booting on all
systems.
At the momenet some PPC and s390 arches don't have docker, in that case we get the following failure when running lorax.

Something is causing problems with the ext4 rootfs.img when running with
no-virt inside koji. This results in a failed image that looks good
until you try to boot it.
make_squashfs will now return False if it fails, and make_live_image
will return None (instead of the result path). lmc will exit with a 1
and log an error.
When using no-virt the runtime filesystem size comes from the kickstart.
For virt installs lmc was creating a runtime filesystem that was just
slightly larger than the space used by the files installed by anaconda.
This can run into problems with larger filesystem. It is also
inconsistent behavior between virt and no-virt installations.
With this commit the virt runtime filesystem will also come from the
kickstart.
Switching to using qemu directly allows lmc to be more flexible. It can
now run from inside a mock chroot for creation of all image types,
inculding disk images, and can take advantage of KVM on the host system
if /dev/kvm device is present inside the mock.
It should also be possible to create cross-arch images, but without kvm
available this is likely to be a very slow option.
glibc recently split all of its locale data into subpackages, so if we
install no langpacks we get no locales. Explicitly install all of the
langpacks.
The ast module depends on:
drm,drm_kms_helper,ttm,syscopyarea,i2c-core,sysfillrect,sysimgblt,i2c-algo-bit
This retains the syscopyarea, sysfillrect, and sysimgblt modules.

When running a no-virt installation it was parsing the kickstart url
method and passing it to anaconda using --repo which prevents it from
working with url --mirrorlist method. There is no good reason to do
this, anaconda gets the method directly from the kickstart when it isn't
on the cmdline.
This allows lorax to support multiple templates.
If there is no templates.d under the sharedir (/usr/share/lorax or the
directory passed by --sharedir) then the templates in that directory
will be used as they were previously.
If there are directories under templates.d the first one will be used,
unless --sharedir points to a specific one.
Use 4k blocks for the ext4 filesystem. Run fsck on the filesystem to
make sure deleted blocks are actually zeroed, and pass -Xbcj to
mksquashfs.
4k blocks and -Xbcj decreases the size by 2-6% depending on the
filesystem size. Zeroing the blocks of the ext4 fs improves things
dramatically. The problem is that DNF downloads the rpms before
installing them. In addition to forcing us to use a larger filesystem
than we would like it leaves data that is difficult to compress on the
image. The downloaded files are removed, but need to be zeroed out so
that mksquashfs can compress it.
since we no longer make the wrappend kernel and initrd for arm we need
to not put them in the .treeinfo file

Instead of reusing --image-name add a new argument to name the iso. This
way the disk image can be given a unique name with --image-name and the
iso can be named something different.
