e187a402ae Move the getsources hook earlier.
Caching PyPI objects will require inspecting the content downloaded by
the source repositories, so needs to run after it.

79ca4d901c Cache repository-sources data.
Cloning large repositories over the internet can take considerable
time.  Caching them locally makes repeated image builds significantly
faster, so lets do that.

When users override the element source they will often be using a
local repository, so in those cases I don't cache - but we could
easily change our minds on that in the future.

f527b024b9 Install git with source-repositories element.
Git isn't a dependency of this element, but is a dependency of pbr
if you are doing pip install on a git cloned directoy, because this
looks to be a fairly common pattern it makes sense to have git on the
target image.

ef2aa6e8a1 Adding element to get source for elements.
Fixes bug 1184943

Adding an element that allows other elements to register
repositories it would like to be retrieved for it.

Doing this outside of the chroot allows locally cached
repositories to be used. It also gives the ability to d-i-b
to specify what revision to use if an alternative to the
most recent is required.

Effectively allowing a CI system to test d-i-b and elements
without being effected by unavailable git repositories or
breakages in actively developed source code being used by
the elements.
