8d1ce9c0c3 Build ramdisks in an image chroot.
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.

04bfd491ad Add mechanism to send error messages to helper.
Adds a new err_msg function which is used to:

-echo feedback to the deploy ramdisk console
-keep track of the first error message we hit so
 that we can send it along to the baremetal-deploy-helper.

Also, updates our wget request back to baremetal-deploy-helper
to include the first the first error message (if any) as
the 'e' parameter.

The err_msg uses a new simple safe_url_encode function to ensure
we don't send invalid characters in our HTTP post requests.

0ff82aff46 Make bash troubleshooting configurable
Adds a new 'troubleshooting' function which encapsulates
the things we might want to do when something bad happens.
Typically this is echo'ing a simple message and launching a
bash shell.

The new troubleshooting function also makes use of a new
'troubleshoot' kernel param which if specific will allow you to
hang the deployment process and interactively debug the deploy_ramdisk
via a bash shell on a console.

Troubleshoot is disabled by default.

Fixes LP Bug #1191043.
