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.

Using the explicit variables, these elements don't have to walk the
path to find the files in other elements; they can extract it directly
Change-Id: I0a64b45e9f2cfa28e84b2859d76b065a6c4590f0
These new variables are a list of elements chosen for the build along
with their full paths. For Python elements, IMAGE_ELEMENT_YAML is a
YAML formatted list that can be easily parsed. For bash elements,
"get_image_element_array" will produce an associative-array of the
same (working around lack of array export in Bash).
This list is intended for consumption of elements who need to copy
files from other elements, such as pkg-map and svc-map. As discussed
in I2a29861c67de2d25c595cb35d850e92807d26ac6, this list has already
been pruned and had overrides processed, so it is safe to simply walk
over this list with no further processing.
Since we're presenting the element list in a couple of different ways,
we combine it all into the element-info script. It will output an
eval-able string that declares the appropriate variables.
I've added some inline documentation so they still appear in grep.
The documentation is updated with examples, and moved to a more
appropriate location as a sub-section of the element sytle guide.
To test this out, use the associative-array in generate_hooks, where
we can now find the element's directory without searching.

This is a re-factor of element_dependencies to achieve two things --
centralising override policy and storing path names.
Firstly we want to make the override policy for elements completely
explicit. Currently, elements that wish to copy parts of other
elements walk ELEMENTS_PATH themselves and look for elements in
IMAGE_ELEMENT. How they handle duplicate elements can differ, leading
to inconsistent behaviour.
We introduce logic in element-info to find elements in each of the
directories in ELEMENT_PATHS in *reverse* order -- that is to say,
earlier entries in the paths will overwrite later ones.
For example
ELEMENT_PATHS=foo:bar:baz
will mean that "foo/element" will override "baz/element", since "foo"
is first. This should be sane to anyone familiar with $PATH.
Documentation is clarified around this point and a test-case is added.
The second thing is that we want to keep the complete path of the
elements we have chosen. We want the aforementioned elements that
walk the element list to use these canonical paths to pickup files;
this way they don't need to make local decisions about element
overrides, but can simply iterate a list and copy/merge files if they
exist.
A follow-on change (I7092e1845942f249175933d67ab121188f3511fd) will
expose this data in a separate variable that can be parsed by elements
(a further follow-on I0a64b45e9f2cfa28e84b2859d76b065a6c4590f0
modifies the elements to use this information). Thus this does not
change the status-quo -- elements that are walking ELEMENTS_PATH
themselves and can/will continue doing that.

Running the functional tests is time consuming. This patch adds the
option `-j <job count>` to the tests/run_functests.sh: when given the
test run in parallel up the <job count> jobs.
When using this, be sure to have enough resources (CPUs, RAM and HD
space) on the host.
In addition there was the need to change two things:
o Global /tmp/dib-test-should-fail was move to temporary build
directory of each execution.
o Because the logs might now interleave, each log line has now a
prefix of the name of the testcase.
[In my environment running functests sequential takes 15+ minutes,
running them parallel takes less than 6 minutes.]

IPv6 privacy extensions can cause issues by preferring a temporary
network over a public one. This preference may limit connectivity
in certain situations. An example of a connectivity issue can be
seen where the command ``traceroute6`` fails or misses all hops
while other traffic to a given domain with a "AAAA" record may
succeed. To resolve this issue the IPv6 privacy extensions have
been disabled.

Since the ironic-agent element builds the ramdisk and extracts the
kernel itself, there's no need to actually generate an image at the
end of the process. Previously the unnecessary image was being
deleted, but this wastes a bunch of time compressing and converting
the image. It's better to just not create the image at all.
This change adds a noop element called no-final-image that
disk-image-create looks for in the element list and, if found, will
cause it to skip the final image generation. This is more flexible
than the previous ironic-agent-specific method that would have
required changes to disk-image-create for every element that wanted
to behave similarly.
Note that this cannot be done using an environment variable, because
element environments.d entries do not propagate out to
disk-image-create. It also doesn't make sense as a user option
because it should be set by the element author, not the user.

This patch solves three issues with Debian packaging / apt:
o When building 'testing' only default apt sources is
included - backports, updates and security are skipped because they
do not exists.
o The default release for Debian was `unstable`: this is now fixed to
`stable`.
o Starting a Debian Stretch VM that was build with diskimage-builder
does not work, because some mandatory packages are missing.
This patch fixes this problem: it adds the mandatory packages and
the test case.
