9ba761ef27 Install fedora grub from cached rpm during finalise
When uninstalling grub2, leave all its dependencies
including grub2-tools installed to minimise the number of packages
which need to be installed in the finalise stage.

Since the yum cache is unmounted during finalise, installing
grub2 in finalise is slowed by re-populating the yum cache.

This change copies the grub2 rpm out of the yum cache so it can be installed
from file during finalise.

This should prevent disk becoming full during finalise on Fedora.

Closes-Bug: #1217185

cb62bae9b8 Build images using loopdev instead of qemu-nbd.
Qemu-nbd does not perform well with older versions of qemu due to
the lack of writeback caching mode. It also only builds qcow2 images
and there is a desire for raw image support. Finally, qemu-nbd makes
it very difficult to build images concurrently due to the somewhat
opaque nature of how it selects a /dev/nbd# device. losetup, on
the other hand, makes this process very straight forward.
