Debian based distros do not enable the serial console by default
in grub.cfg, instead sending all boot messages to the display

The script to find best kernel from image (used by vm
and baremetal element) is duplicated and is not in sync
with each other. Moving the code to img-functions as a
function will reduce duplicated code and make it reusable
in future.
Since img-functions is not accessible in chroot env,
kernel selection is being moved from finalise.d to
cleanup.d in the vm element.

As with the previous similar changes, this is intended to catch
problems as they happen instead of ignoring them and continuing on
to potentially fail later. Setting this on all existing scripts
will allow us to enforce use via Jenkins.

Fixes problems found by set -eu and pipefail, including:
-Many unset variables
-Commands that can fail under normal circumstances, which breaks
with set -e. This change swallows those expected errors to allow
our existing error code to handle them.
-The dkms element was not finding Fedora kernel versions correctly.
This may be an issue for other distros too, but since Fedora was
working fine without this functionality I only changed it to print
a warning message rather than failing the build when it happens.
-The ramdisk init script will not be set -eu because if it fails
the result is a kernel panic, which can be tricky to debug.
However, in testing with set -e a few failing commands were found
and have been fixed in this patch.

--target has been introduced in grub2. This patch ensure we use

The grub install scripts on Fedora have hardcoded checks for
/sys/firmware/efi and if the directory exists, it uses efi
specific instruction like initrdefi, linuxefi etc. vm element
should fix it once the configuration is generated.

Extlinux bootloader configuration in "vm" element requires vmlinuz and
initrd.img files in /boot/ with "generic" suffix. When these don't exist,
bootloader configuration should fall back to using whatever does exist.

If creating an image of a disto without grub2 extlinux is instead used,
extlinux was being configured to mount the root filesystem as
read/write which in turn causes e2fsck to fail to test the filesystem,
on RHEL 6.5 this causes the boot process to fail.

52-force-text-mode-console, running after 51-bootloader, calls
grub2-mkconfig (on Ubuntu that will happen via the update-grub call).
This call will overwrite all the changes that 51-bootloader did to the
grub.cfg. By merging the 52-force-text-mode-console code into
51-bootloader we avoid that. This also means that 51-bootloader will now
call grub2-mkconfig regardless of whether there is already and existing
grub2 configuration or not (52-force-text-mode-console did that in the
past anyway).
Additionally this commit enables the force to textmode code for openSUSE
(was previously only working correctly for Ubuntu and Fedora).

Since we are using bash syntax in some of the element fragments,
we should make sure we use bash for all of them, so that things don't
break on systems where /bin/sh != /bin/bash.

Changing the grub config makes no sense in a build not heading for a vm
and may fail because grub is removed from images not including the vm
element. Forcing textmode for those images would be better done in nova.

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.

If GRUB2 is not available in the system a fallback to install Extlinux
will happen. This patch also allows you to enforce the use of Extlinux
exporting the DIB_EXTLINUX variable.

This patch is part of a another big patch that will implement a fallback
to Extlinux in case GRUB2 is not available in the system. The reason why
it's being splitted in two patches is because git is not being able to
recognize the file changes when the rename happens in the same commit.

If you have an EFI host but the image doesn't have the EFI modules
installed the grub-install command will fail in case the --target
argument is not set. The problem is that the grub-install script will
check whether the /sys/firmware/efi file exists or not to determine if
it's an EFI installation, but this value comes from the host, so this
patch will look for the /sys/firmware/efi file and will also check if
the EFI modules are installed in the image, if not set the --target to
a non-efi platform.

In the 51-grub hook, after the GRUB installation, the script will look
for a GRUB configuration file and in case it's not present one will
be generated using the grub-mkconfig command. The reason why it have
to be done is because the new Fedora 19 cloud images is using extlinux
by default.

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.

This is a necessary but not complete step towards supporting Fedora and Suse

It makes more sense for grub to be installed by the vm element, since
that is intended to produce directly bootable disk images.
