The `size` option was using `-l`, which in fact was `--extents`.
Fix that to use `--size` and add a new option `extents` that
will in fact call translate to `--extents` and this replace the
current use of the `size` option.
Adapt the `fedora-ostree-image` test manifest to use `extents`.
Ability to set the bootloader backend that OSTree should use. NB:
normally this should be set to `none` since in modern distros and
bootloaders the BLS is used and the BLS snippets are generated on
`none` but none of the of the specific bootloader tools are run,
like `grub2-mkconfig` for grub.
Update the fedora image manifest to use that config setting.
Add an optional `remote` to the deployment of the ostree so that
the it is tied to the specified remote. This is needed later for
updating the commit from that remote.
Greenboot is the idea of automatically rolling back bad updates,
i.e. updates that do not boot successfully. The implementation
is split between the boot loader and a user space component.
The latter sets two variables `boot_counter`, which indicates
the maximum number of boot attempts and `boot_success` which
tells the boot laoder if a previous boot was successful. The
bootloader on the other hand will decrement the counter variable
and reset the success indicator one.
An implementation of the user space component for rpm-ostree is
called `greenboot`.
The order of entries in a dictionary is not specified by the JSON
standard and hard to control when marshalling dictionaries in Go.
Since the order of mounts is important and the wrong order leads
to wrong mount trees change the `mounts` field to an array. This
breaks existing manifests but after careful deliberation it was
concluded that the original schema with mounts as dictionaries
is not something we want to support. Apologies to everyone.
Adjust the schema of the copy and zipl stage accordingly.
The manifests set a "en_US" locale but this causes gnome-terminal to not
run due a non UTF-8 locale being used, which is an unsupported config:
gnome-terminal-server[1899]: Non UTF-8 locale (ISO-8859-1) is not supported!

Use the new partiton layout support in MPP. NB: start data as
well as the size of the last partition have been omitted now,
since `sfdisk` will figure those out for us.
This uses size computations to simplify the partition size/offsets
and the depsolv results to get the kernel version.
This makes no changes to the resulting json files.
Instead of operating directly on a file, which was previously specified
by `filename`, operate on a device. This is more flexible since a file
can be accessed via a loop back device; but the inverse is obviously
not true, like other devices can not be accessed via a plain file.
Therefore, re-factor the stage to use a device and adapt the existing
test (`fedora-ostree-image`).
Add a new manifest that creates an ostree commit, deploys that,
creates a raw image and copies the deployment into it. The
resulting artefact is a bootlabel qcow2 image.
