We will now have a dedicated alpine based `distrobox` image. Due to
restrictions in how the `/tmp` directory in a `distrobox` image works,
it will not play nicely with generating a local tarball for rebasing a
locally built image. Going further into fixing this would required a
rootful setup and I'd rather leave the `distrobox` method as an easy way
to try out building a recipe for users who are not booted on a
`bluebuild` image.
Extra packages are installed to make the `distrobox` setup quicker and a
`distrobox.ini` file is provided to easily create the container and
export the CLI for use on the host machine. The `podman` binary is
passed into the `distrobox` container so that all images that are built
will be accessible locally and allows rootless operation without extra
setup.
This updates the `template` subcommand to be `generate`. The `template`
usage will continue to work as an alias to `generate`. A new `switch`
command is added that will manage both `rpm-ostree rebase` and
`rpm-ostree upgrade` and is fully replacing the respective subcommands
as a breaking change.
The new `switch` command is under the feature flag `switch` and will
currently only build for the `main` branch builds until it is moved as a
default feature (`v0.9.0`).
Closes#159
Recipe files can now be put into their own directory `./recipes/`. This
directory is NEVER copied into the build so changes to a recipe will no
longer cause cache misses for builds. Here is an example of my build
changing the second to last module and only requiring the last 2 `RUN`
layers to be run again.

```
Support was also added to put all build files into `./files/` instead of
`./config/`. This is an all or nothing operation, meaning if there
exists a directory of `files` then the `config` directory will be
completely ignored. Work will have to be done in
https://github.com/blue-build/modules to allow users to put their files
directly in `./files/` and not `./files/files` for the `files` module or
`./files/scripts` for the scripts module.
Support was also added to move the `./config/containerfiles/` directory
to the root of the project. Now the directories you can find in the root
of projects are:
```
files/
containerfiles/
recipes/
```
I had initially added distrobox installation instructions to the website
(see [here](https://github.com/blue-build/website/pull/45), but it has
been suggested that the CLI readme is a more natural place for them.
I have tested the distrobox installation method and procedures on my
home machine and aside from an odd bug (see
https://github.com/blue-build/cli/issues/145) everything is working.
Trying to make the action install the binary from the container on GHCR
with `podman run --rm ghcr.io/blue-build/cli:main-installer | sudo bash`
(like in the README). Getting some error and this _might_ be related and
might not, but shouldn't hurt to merge either, since I just made the
`cli` package public.
