Add a simple check that data written through the loop device is
actually ending up in the file. NB: this this will _fail_ if the
fd is cleared via `clear_fd` without the use of `flush_buf`. It
seems that the kernel (as of 5.13.8) will indeed not clear the
buffer cache of the loop device if the backing file is detached
via `LOOP_CLR_FD`. On the other hand, if the autoclear flag is,
i.e. the backing file cleared when the last file descriptor of
the loop device is closed, the buffer cached will be cleared as
part of the `release` operation of the block device.
Properly label the build root for the f34 build root manifest v2.
Also label the cp and tar binaries with `install_exec_t` so they
can read and copy labels unknown to the host.
Add support for locking the loopback block device via `flock(2)`.
The main use case for this is to prevent systemd-udevd from
proben the device while any modification is done to it. See the
systemd page, https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd, for
more details.
Add the corresponding tests to it.
Add a helper method that clears the fd for a given loop device but
also ensures that the loop device is not bound to the supplied fd
anymore. Check the function documentation for more information.
Add a corresponding test.
Add a `Loop.is_bound_to` helper that checks if the looback device is
bound if is so if the backing file refers to the same file as `fd`.
The latter is done by comparing the device and inode information.
Add a helper that will check if the loop devices is backed by
the file identified via the stat(2) result, i.e. the inode on
the correspoding device.
Add a correspoding test for the new helper.
Implement a `Loop.get_status` method, to get the properties of the
loop device, corresponding to LOOP_GET_STATUS64, and counterpart
to the existing `Loop.set_status` method. Use the new `get_status`
call in the `set_status` call, replacing the existing code that
does the same thing.
Add a basic test for the `get_status` method. Also fix an actual
leak, where the loop device was closed but the fd was not cleared
inside the test.
Include a simple test for the `tar` stage that does basic checks,
i.e. that a tarball was successfully created, but also checks
that we do not create entries with a `./` prefix.
Create a new `org.osbuild.systemd.unit` stage with the code for
create systemd drop-ins extracted from `org.osbuild.systemd`.
In contrast to the old code the new stage can only handle one
drop-in file. This makes the stage and its schema clearer
and simpler. If more than one config file is needed, the stage can
be repeated multiple times. It is also more flexible since we can
in the future specify additional options at the top level which
will then be per-file, like a top level comment.
The file is called `org.osbuild.systemd.unit` since in the future
it could also support creating unit files (not just drop-ins).
Instead of supporting writing an arbitrary number of configuration
files, just write one. This makes the stage and its schema clearer
and simpler. If more than one config file is needed, the stage can
be repeated multiple times. It is also more flexible since we can
in the future specify additional options at the top level which
will then be per-file, like a top level comment.

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.
Validate source references while loading manifests so that a bad
reference would result in a meaningful error message instead of a
hard-to-understand Python exception.
Instead of having the OSTree repo in the anaconda root squashfs,
put the it to the root of the iso. This has several advantages:
first and foremost, we don't have to make a huge squahfs file-
system. We don't have to compress the repo. Additionally, the
repo is now easily accessible by mounting the iso.
Intead of overwriting the standard ananconda kickstart file, we
move it to the root of the iso. To have anaconda pick it up an
additional kernel command line parameter is required.
F34+ has the xorg-x11-server-utils package split up. Install the
individual new packages we need for anaconda.

Use variables for various often occuring contants, like the
release, ref and isolabel. Additionally, use variables for
the snapshot so it can be changed easily.
Allow the manifest variables, defined via mpp-vars, to be used from
within the mpp blocks. For this template strings are used, where
variables are marked via `$`. We cannot use the `mpp-format` logic
easily there, since that is processed after other mpp directives
have been processed.
As a result remove the built-in substitution from support from dnf
dep-solving, since we had to post-process the resulting urls with
variable substitution afterwards. Now that is covered with this
more generic mechanism.
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!
