This works around two issues:
- First, rpm switched to reading users/groups directly for
its implementation of systemd-sysusers, which meant
it no longer reads via nss, which breaks nss-altfiles.
xref: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/pull/2503#issuecomment-1536435351
and below.
- Second, even if that was fixed, `keylime` wants to add
its user to the group, which can't be done when it's a system
uid.
Since nothing in the OS content is owned by this group, we can
move underneath `/etc` by default.

I just saw the sqlite-shm corruption in
https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/containers/bootc/-/merge_requests/437#note_2372766792
so let's just go ahead and turn on rpmdb_normalize which
also aids the reproducibility of the rpmdb.
While we're here let's also add a long overdue "unit test" for
the rootfs. This operates as a container build that mounts
the container-under-test as part of a multi-stage build.

As part of all of this we're de-emphasizing "tier-x" and focusing
on making it ergonomic to either build up from minimal, or down+up
from standard.
Second, also add a CI test for our derived image.

- Embed the manifests into the container image
- Add bootc-base-imagectl which is a tightly controlled frontend
to execute on those manifests.
For now, we don't attempt to rework how we build the standard
image to actually look like `dnf install`, but we show that
it can work.
