Since http://httpredir.debian.org is unreliable is selecting a mirror
to use, we'll now default to http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian. In
fact, in openstack-infra we have been overriding httpredir.debian.org
for a while, now make this default in diskimage-builder.

This patch solves three issues with Debian packaging / apt:
o When building 'testing' only default apt sources is
included - backports, updates and security are skipped because they
do not exists.
o The default release for Debian was `unstable`: this is now fixed to
`stable`.
o Starting a Debian Stretch VM that was build with diskimage-builder
does not work, because some mandatory packages are missing.
This patch fixes this problem: it adds the mandatory packages and
the test case.

The apt-sources element did not work with debian-minimal, because
the later one overwrote the /etc/apt/sources.list file created by
the apt-sources element.
Two changes were made:
o the debian-minimal uses now files inside the /etc/apt/sources.list.d
directory. Therefore there is no possibilty for clashes between those
two elements any more.
o instead of only adding backports, also the updates and the security
repository is added by default which gives perfect initial
configuration for a stable system.
If you want to use local mirrors with other naming schemas or an
unstable tree, there is the possibility to fully specify the
repositories.

debootstrap is not debian or ubuntu specific. We can make a debootstrap
element that knows how to do all of the things, and then a
debian-minimal and ubuntu-minimal image that use it. Finally, make
the debian element simply be a collection of the extra things we do to
make it look like a cloud-init based cloud image.
