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__.

Optionally remove portage files, so that we can cache package and
keep the portage directory around, specifically for nodepool.
This also adds a section to the Gentoo readme about the variable
and renames the 00-gentoo-distro-name environment file to a more
appropriate name of 00-gentoo-envars.
Also brought up was the location of the gentoo-releng.gpg file,
this has been moved and the refrencing paths updated.

This commit adds testing for the gentoo element based off of the debian
element. In adding testing support a couple of additional errors were
found and corrected, namely the following.
* shm is not in /proc/mounts though it is valid for use based off of
the sticky flag.
* The path in ELEMENTS_PATH needs to be pruned to be usable.
* Added uuidgen-runtime to the list of packages installed for Ubuntu
as the new ubuntu-trusty image does not ship with it.

This checks the profile, if it has hardened in it's name it needs xattr support
unfortunately xattr support cannot yet be relied on everywhere, so it needs to
be disabled for hardened profile builds to correctly pax-mark.

Our dib-lint checking is only considering scripts with #!/bin/bash.
While there's nothing really wrong with some other shebang line like
"#!/usr/bin/env bash" let's keep things consistent.
We can use the same regex match to reduce a few forks in the main
checking.
Also a minor cleanup to the file matching
