Debootstrap only supports one apt repository to install packages from.
As a result, we do not consider the updates repo during debootstrap
causing us install a second kernel when we do an apt-get dist-upgrade
during build.
Lets use debootstrap to get us a minimal chroot, then add our repos and
install the correct packages from the start.
We also have to reorder the dpkg root.d scripts which configure apt so
they run before we perform our package installs.

Since http://httpredir.debian.org is unreliable is selecting a mirror
to use, we'll now default to http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian. In
fact, in openstack-infra we have been overriding httpredir.debian.org
for a while, now make this default in diskimage-builder.

Explain difference between 'DIB_OFFLINE' and
'DIB_DEBIAN_USE_DEBOOTSTRAP_CACHE'
Those variables are not redundant,they hava different effective ranges.
However,some people may be confused about this and reported a bug.
So,this difference should be writen in the README file.

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.

The apt-sources element did not work with debian-minimal, because
the later one overwrote the /etc/apt/sources.list file created by
the apt-sources element.
Two changes were made:
o the debian-minimal uses now files inside the /etc/apt/sources.list.d
directory. Therefore there is no possibilty for clashes between those
two elements any more.
o instead of only adding backports, also the updates and the security
repository is added by default which gives perfect initial
configuration for a stable system.
If you want to use local mirrors with other naming schemas or an
unstable tree, there is the possibility to fully specify the
repositories.

The debian-minimal element creates /etc/apt/sources.list solely with
the 'main' component. I need to add 'non-free' and 'contribs'. I tried
to pass them via DIB_DEBIAN_COMPONENTS but it is not recognized.
Make debian-minimal to honor DIB_DEBIAN_COMPONENTS. Note that it is
comma separated for 'debootstrap', so replace commas with spaces to fit
the needs of sources.list.
Example usage:
DIB_DEBIAN_COMPONENTS='main,non-free,contrib'
Will debootstrap with the three components then when debian-minimal is
realized pre install a sources.list that has:
deb http://example.org/debian jessie main contrib non-free

'locales' package gets installed before '12-debian-locale-gen' is executed
and generates effectively empty /etc/locales.gen in debian, which makes
dpkg-reconfigure call to locales ignore the values set by
debconf-set-selections.
* Remove /etc/locale.gen generated by 'locales' installation to ensure
proper locales generation on debian images
* Remove 'locales-all' package installation from debian element since
it's not needed anymore to build the image and cosnumes additional
~120MB of space
* Remove unused 'package-installs' dependency from debian-minimal
element

These are ubuntu-isms that do not exist on debian mirrors and cause
builds to break if they're based on a stable debian release.

debootstrap is not debian or ubuntu specific. We can make a debootstrap
element that knows how to do all of the things, and then a
debian-minimal and ubuntu-minimal image that use it. Finally, make
the debian element simply be a collection of the extra things we do to
make it look like a cloud-init based cloud image.
