Matthew Thode 9707cf5282 Add testing for the Gentoo element 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.

========
Gentoo
========
Use a Gentoo cloud image as the baseline for built disk images. The images are
located in profile specific sub directories:

    http://distfiles.gentoo.org/releases/amd64/autobuilds/

As of this writing, only x86_64 images are available.

Notes:

* There are very frequently new automated builds that include changes that
  happen during the product maintenance. The download directories contain an
  unversioned name and a versioned name. The unversioned name will always
  point to the latest image, but will frequently change its content. The versioned
  one will never change content, but will frequently be deleted and replaced
  by a newer build with a higher version-release number.

* In order to run the package-installs element you will need to make sure
  `dev-python/pyyaml` is installed on the host.

* Other profiles can be used by exporting GENTOO_PROFILE with a valid profile.
  A list of valid profiles follows:

    default/linux/amd64/13.0
    default/linux/amd64/13.0/no-multilib
    hardened/linux/amd64
    hardened/linux/amd64/no-multilib
