8e84ef10c1 Add filesystem image install support
This adds support for installing to a filesystem image instead of a
partitioned disk image. It requires Anaconda's --dirinstall support.
Also re-organized the code to break it up into smaller methods.

This speeds up iso creation in no-virt mode by removing the need to copy
the filesystem from the partitioned disk image to the filesystem image
that is used to make the squashfs image.

5afa0c631d livemedia-creator: don't pass console=ttyS0
passing console=ttyS0 makes the virt hang until there is input. Remove
it and now it will run unattended in text mode.

91ff02eae3 livemedia-creator: add location option
--location specifies an iso directory tree to be used by virt-install
instead of the iso. This allows you to update the initrd in the tree for
debugging.

virt-install uses the images/pxeboot/ directory for initrd.img and
vmlinux.

An iso is still required for the LiveOS/squashfs.img stage2 file.

505d5bf164 move live templates into their own subdir of share
live media isn't exactly the same as the Anaconda install media. Right
now this amounts to needing a root= cmdline argument but in the future
there may be other differences.

This also reverts 5437557846 on the new copies of the templates.

134eec24d5 clean up command execution
Switch to using execWith* so that the command and its output can be

c143d5b72d Add pollcdrom module to dracut
From Harald Hoyer <harald@redhat.com>:

pollcdrom is used to poll for the install medium. A lot of CDROM drives
are not polled by the kernel correctly, so we have to actively poll for
the medium.

0ec326eb3c mkefiboot: Copy Mac bootloader, rather than linking it
The Mac firmware needs special-casing for hardlinked bootloaders, and
it's kind of awkward to handle that in python. Just copy them for now

69c14b8f84 livemedia-creator: Add support for making ami images
AMI images are un-partitioned filesystem images with a grub.conf that
is read by the pv-grub bootloader used by EC2. Most of the actual work
making the AMI is done in the kickstart. This just creates the image
file.

1bbc546147 Allow specifying buildarch on the command line (#771382)
Some repos may contain anaconda packages for more architectures,
so it's not possible to get the right buildarch.
This patch allows optional specifying of the buildarch on the
command line when running lorax.
If the buildarch is not specified manually, lorax tries to get
it from the anaconda package as before.
If there's no anaconda package in the repository, don't fallback
to the system architecture and continue, because this is pointless.
We need the anaconda package.

f65849d87c Add livemedia-creator
livemedia-creator uses an anaconda install media iso to install to a
file image. virt-install is used to execute the kickstart. lorax is used
to post-process the image file and create a bootable .iso from it.

Future additions will allow creation of EC2 images and output xml
details about the install.

This adds the new "mkefiboot" cmd, which creates an efiboot img in the

this (unlike the existing tools for all the other weirdo boot image
types) so it was necessary to create one.
