deb832d685 Create and use plugin/node abstract classes
This completes the transitions started in
Ic5a61365ef0132476b11bdbf1dd96885e91c3cb6

The new file plugin.py is the place to start with this change.  The
abstract base classes PluginBase and NodeBase are heavily documented.
NodeBase essentially replaces Digraph.Node

The changes in level?/*.py make no functional changes, but are just
refactoring to implement the plugin and node classes consistently.
Additionally we have added asserts during parsing & generation to
ensure plugins are implemented PluginBase, and get_nodes() is always
returning NodeBase objects for the graph.

ec7f56c1b2 Refactor: block-device handling (partitioning)
During the creation of a disk image (e.g. for a VM), there is the need
to create, setup, configure and afterwards detach some kind of storage
where the newly installed OS can be copied to or directly installed
in.

This patch implements partitioning handling.

3d48a528c1 Refactor: block-device handling (local loop)
Block device handling can be somewhat complex - especially
when taking things like md, lvm or encryption into account.

This patch factors out the creation and deletion of the local
loop image device handling into a python library.

The main propose of this patch is to implement the needed
infrastructure.  Based on this, more advanced functions can be added.
Example: (advanced) partitioning, LVM, handling different boot
scenarios (BIOS, UEFI, ...), possibility of handling multiple images
(local loop image, iSCSI, physical hard disk, ...), handling of
different filesystems for different partitions / LVs.
