In some scenarios, the required space in the tmpfs partition can be
larger (or smaller) than the default one, producing errors due to
the lack of enough space (or performance penalties for not using
tmpfs).
Using --min-tmpfs <size>, we can hint the working set size we'll need
and let dib choose to avoid or use tmpfs.

Most of our build process runs as root and the overhead of explicitly
tracking sudo commands in the shipped sudoers.d file, plus the
operational overhead of keeping the sudoers.d file updated on build
hosts over time, is now considered to be unnecessary.
Instead, we now document that the build process will expect sudo
commands to work and the operator must make this happen (either by
running as root, via sudo -E, or allowing passwordless sudo for the
build user).

Previously if mktemp failed in function mk_build_dir, die was not
called. The check for the exit code was actually checking that the
previous export statement completed successfully, not the call to
mktemp.

- Ensures /sbin and friends are in $PATH when invoked (without this,
various sudo invocations fail in exciting ways).
- Use dib-run-parts in lib/common-functions instead of run-parts
(neither SLES nor openSUSE ship run-parts).
- Ensure dib-run-parts doesn't descend into subdirectories (same
behaviour as run-parts).
- Move dib-run-parts from root.d to bin (cleaner, consistent with
other elements with separate bin scripts).
- Tested by building Ubuntu image on openSUSE 12.3.
- Note: this doesn't add support for creating SUSE images, it just
lets you run disk-image-create on SUSE-based distros.

Ramdisks are now built inside a chroot which is built by the normal
image build process. Doing so improves our independence of the
precise state of the build host.
This fixes bug 1194055.

RAMDISK_ELEMENT is a spurious difference, to merge the code we need
only semantic difference to exist.

When partition tables are added to loopback devices, this can set off a
chain of udev hooks that may still be holding the loopback open. Failing
to detach loopback devices was the reason we were seeing leaked tmpfs
volumes.

Ramdisk-image-create sources both img-functions and ramdisk-functions
causing duplicate functions. To correct this situation this patch
removes the import of img-functions from ramdisk-image-create.
It moves cleanup_dirs and run_d functions from img-functions to
common-functions to allow this.

For machines with low RAM (or no access to /proc/meminfo) the builder
will still run, but will just build inside the filesystem that is
hosting /tmp. This will result in a slower build (especially if there
are a lot of .deb packages installed).
Fixes bug #1175453

A recent commit added a call to function cleanup_dirs to
the common-functions file, but this function is not in scope
for all code paths.
The problem can be reproduced like so:
bin/ramdisk-image-create deploy -o /tmp/foo
Which results in the error:
bin/../lib/common-functions: line 35: cleanup_dirs: command not found
This change causes cleanup_dirs to be in scope when calling ramdisk-image-create.

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.

Using ELEMENTS_DIR env variable, you can specify multiple dirs containint your elements.
It must be a ":" separated elements list.
When an element is seen in one of those lists, it will be chosen and will continue with the next element.

Move common openstack service installation operations
into a new script `os-svc-install`, which simplifies
the elements for openstack services.

Flavour is overloaded in openstack due to it being used by nova. Element
seems to have the same feeling of combinability without using a term already
in active use in the openstack community.
