Steve Kowalik 98fa6c882f Shift debian element to DIB_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR 
The ubuntu element supports simple replacement of sources.list by using
the DIB_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR environment variable. Drag the debian
element into line by supporting both DIB_DEBIAN_MIRROR and the new shiny
DIB_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR.

README.md

Create an image based on Debian. We default to unstable but DIB_RELEASE is mapped to any series of Debian.

Note that the default Debian series is unstable, and the default mirrors for Debian can be problematic for unstable. Because apt does not handle changing Packages files well across multiple out of sync mirrors, it is recommended that you choose a single mirror of debian, and pass it in via DIB_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR.

Use of this element will also require the tool 'debootstrap' to be available on your system. It should be available on Ubuntu, Debian, and Fedora.
