Jeremy Stanley 9b201b58b9 Add security mirror override for debian-minimal
Add option to set the security mirror URL independently in the
debian-minimal element, since this can not be overriden by the
standard DIB_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR variable.

==============
debian-minimal
==============
The ``debian-minimal`` element uses debootstrap for generating a
minimal image.
By default this element creates the latest stable release. The exact
setting can be found in the element's ``environment.d`` directory in
the variable ``DIB_RELEASE``. If a different release of Debian should
be created, the variable ``DIB_RELEASE`` can be set appropriately.
Note that this element installs ``systemd-sysv`` as the init system
The element obeys the ``DIB_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR`` argument for
mirroring (see ``debootsrap`` element documentation). However, the
security repositories are separate for Debian, so we can not assume
they exist at ``DIB_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR``. If you do not wish to use
the upstream repository (from ``security.debian.org``) override it
with ``DIB_DEBIAN_SECURITY_MIRROR``.
