Should install "grub2-efi-aa64 grub2-efi-aa64-modules" instead of
"grub2-efi grub2-efi-modules" for arm64

Closes-bug: #1839816
RHEL8 ships a bunch of grub2-efi-X-modules in its main
repository, each of which provides grub2-efi-modules,
potentially causing nondeterminism when building images.
This changes the DIB elements to always use architecture-
specific RPMs when RHEL8 is selected.

Due to the arm naming convention, building centos images for arm64 and
aarch64 does not yield the same result. In order to locate grub2 on
aarch64 the correct mapping is added.

When using uefi in rhel, the package mapping is incorrect.
We need to add specific grub-efi* mappings to use grub2-efi

In the prior change we added block-device-[mbr|gpt|efi] elements to
create appropriate disk-layouts.
This adds an environment flag to each so the bootloader can install
the right thing. The EFI install path is updated to work with this
(this part a copy of I572937945adbb5adaa5cb09200752e323c2c9531)
We do some basic sanity checking in the block-device elements;
e.g. mbr is not suitable for aarch64, and efi is not suitable for
power.
This updates the bootloader to install EFI where appropriate

In order to support {CentOS,RHEL}7 for building cloud images we need to
handle the differences in grub packaging from Ubuntu. We also need to
populate the defualt location for cloud images for CentOS builds.

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__.
