GRUB_OPTS has never been documented as externally available, and is
not used. Assume it's value to simplify the code.
Move the grub version check separately, as we only support grub2
Remove references to buliding i386 images. I don't image it works in
any way.
Remove ci.md, which is no longer relevant.
Refactor the test for "building BIOS image on EFI system" consiberably
after these changes.

We've moved away from building "stable"/"testing" targets, as they
move over time so you never know what you're building.
These testing targets are unused, remove them to remove confusion.

This does a basic vm build test of bullseye-arm64, which currently is
missing from the ARM64 testing.
To keep runtimes a bit more reasonable, split the job into two parts,
one for deb distros and one for rpm.

As noted inline, this works around potential issues by being a strong
indication you are in a container (e.g. [1]). Since nothing should be
changing anything on the host/build system, this is a generically
safer way to operate.

As of grub2 >= 2.02-95 on redhat family distros, calling grub2-install
on an EFI partition will fail with: "this utility cannot be used for
EFI platforms because it does not support UEFI Secure Boot."
This version of grub is now in centos8-stream and non-eus repos of
RHEL-8. It is not currently possible to build whole-disk UEFI images
on these distros, and when this package is promoted this will also
affect centos8 and RHEL-8 eus. The grub maintainers made this change
because the grub2-install generated /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI
will never be capable of booting with Secure Boot.
This change defines a $EFI_BOOT_DIR for every distro element. When
directory /boot/efi/$EFI_BOOT_DIR exists a grub.cfg file in will be
generated there. This change also installs the shim package on redhat
family distros, which installs a copy of the shim bootloader to
/boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI. Using centos as an example, this
allows UEFI to boot the shim /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI which
then chains to /boot/efi/EFI/centos/grubx64.efi.
If /boot/efi/$EFI_BOOT_DIR doesn't exist (such as for Ubuntu,
/boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu) the current behaviour of running grub-install to
generate /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI will continue. For distros
such as Ubutnu where packaging does not populate /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu
with .efi files, secure boot can be added in the future by copying
.efi files to /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu and copying the shim file to
/boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI.

We are at the point that all distributions we are building have Python
3, so any tools running in the chroot can assume Python 3 exists.
This makes dib-python redundant; mark it as deprecated and start to
remove it from elements where it is no longer required.

The current implementation evauates the dib-init-system
script too early. Also it looks that there is no simple
way of getting the info about the init system automatically:
another element can install (later on) a different
init system. Therefore the only reliable way of setting
this is manual.

debian-minimal depends on debootstrap which depends on dpkg
This needs to be installed early as dpkg installs the apt keys early via
02-add-apt-keys in pre-install.d

Due to the referenced bug, many versions of debootstrap can't bring up
a buster environment. Unfortunately, these include versions we use to
do this on Xenial/Bionic nodes.
Also, there isn't backports or security updates, so elide these for
now.
I did get a working build (I haven't gone so far as a full boot+glean)
with this, at least.

Paritial-Bug: #1822927
When building with debootstrap, debootstrap will use the key to check
that everything is properly signed. It will not `apt-key add` the key
into the final environment, however.
Early adding the key after debootstrap before we need to read from the
private repo again prevents unsigned issues. This also maintains the
integrity of the packages in the environment throughout the build.

Many programs rely upon /etc/protocols to be present
however the default debian image that is generated lacks
/etc/protocols. This is observable when building an image
for use with ironic via the ironic-agent element, since
the IPA agent fails to start as python needs /etc/protocols
to open a socket connection.
Added to debian-minimal as it is inherited into the debian
element.

There is some confusion in the readme's over what is happening. The
original change (Iaf46c8e61bf1cac9a096cbfd75d6d6a9111b701e) split out
debian-minimal and made debian "... simply be a collection of the
extra things we do to make it look like a cloud-init based cloud
image"
Make this clearer in the documentation

Debian Stretch released as stable recently, and the init system is
less tightly specified in the base dependencies (for some info, see
[1]). It seems, probably unintentionally, that in the previous
release systemd-sysv was brought in by debootstrap, but that is no
longer happening.
Add systemd as an early dependency of debian-minimal.
Remove the package-installs.yaml as that happens too late (other
things need to know the init system to write out service files, etc
and probe for systemd utils before package-installs). As mentioned, I
do not believe the "only install systemd on testing" idea was actually
working here, because it was being brought in during the initial
debootstrap.
Update some documentation to explain what's going on

Currently there is no description of dependencies in the generated
documentation of the elements: therefore a user of an element does not
know which other elements are automatically included and e.g. which
configuration options are available. In addition there are some
copy&pastes of parts of the README.rst scattered thought different
Ubuntu and Debian specific elements.
This patch adds a semi-automatic generation of dependency information
of all elements. Nevertheless these are not automatically included.
The author of the element's README.rst can decide if and where the
dependency information should appear and can use the descriptor
.. element_deps::
for this.
This patch adds the dependency information for some Debian and
Ubuntu patches - and creates the base for later removing the
duplicated parts.
A call is added to element_dependencies._find_all_elements() to
populate reverse dependencies for Element objects.
(This is a reworking of I31d2b6050b6c46fefe37378698e9a330025db430 for

Currently we have all our elements and library files in a top-level
directory and install them into
<root>/share/diskimage-builder/[elements|lib] (where root is either /
or the root of a virtualenv).
The problem with this is that editable/development installs (pip -e)
do *not* install data_files. Thus we have no canonical location to
look for elements -- leading to the various odd things we do such as a
whole bunch of guessing at the top of disk-image-create and having a
special test-loader in tests/test_elements.py so we can run python
unit tests on those elements that have it.
data_files is really the wrong thing to use for what are essentially
assets of the program. data_files install works well for things like
config-files, init.d files or dropping documentation files.
By moving the elements under the diskimage_builder package, we always
know where they are relative to where we import from. In fact,
pkg_resources has an api for this which we wrap in the new
diskimage_builder/paths.py helper [1].
We use this helper to find the correct path in the couple of places we
need to find the base-elements dir, and for the paths to import the
library shell functions.
Elements such as svc-map and pkg-map include python unit-tests, which
we do not need tests/test_elements.py to special-case load any more.
They just get found automatically by the normal subunit loader.
I have a follow-on change (I69ca3d26fede0506a6353c077c69f735c8d84d28)
to move disk-image-create to a regular python entry-point.
Unfortunately, this has to move to work with setuptools. You'd think
a symlink under diskimage_builder/[elements|lib] would work, but it
doesn't.
[1] this API handles stuff like getting files out of .zip archive
modules, which we don't do. Essentially for us it's returning
__file__.
