scp in openssh 8.7 will change to use sftp protocol. See
https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/pull/194 for details.
This enables the sshd internal-sftp implementation so that newer scp
versions will continue to work as expected. Note that the sshd service
is only running during the installation if inst.sshd is passed on the
kernel cmdline.

With -joliet-long it allows longer filenames, but silently drops the
ones longer than 253 characters. Check for this and raise an error.

mkksiso cannot be run on an iso from another arch, some of the files and
tools are arch specific. Catch this problem and tell the user that the
iso doesn't match the host's architecture.

It is possible the source iso doesn't have an id, or there is an errorr
reading it. Raise an error when this happens to make it more clear what
the problem is.

nomodeset no long does anything helpful, and inst.text doesn't make sense
with a live image so drop the menu from the live image.

Newer versions of pylint complain about u'' not being needed and using
open without setting encoding. These are valid warnings, but do not
effect the operation of lorax so they have been added to the
FalsePositive list in runpylint.py

grub2-2.06-3 changes where the unicode.pf2 font file is stored.
This changes the efi.tmpl to install it from the new location, which
means that it depends on grub2-2.06-3, but there is no way to express
this in the runtime-install.tmpl so if you see a failure like:
2021-07-08 16:10:05,586: OSError: nothing matching /var/tmp/lorax/lorax.t80f74er/installroot/boot/grub2/fonts/unicode.pf2 in /
it means the new version of grub2 wasn't in the repos you used when
running lorax.

dracut needs a reasonable chroot environment in order to run correctly.
This adds the DracutChroot context manager that sets up and tears down
mounts inside the root directory tree.
Switch to using it in creator.rebuild_initrds_for_live() and
TreeBuilder.rebuild_initrds()
(cherry picked from commit 322a810403)
