James Slagle b4dfa6cb90 Move install type enablement into base element 
Move whether the package or source install type is enabled out of the
source-repositories element and into the base element.
source-repositories wasn't a great fit for this functionality to begin
with.

Specify the install type for an element via the
DIB_INSTALLTYPE_<install_dir_prefix> environment variable.

Additionally with this approach, any new install type can be added
in an element, without having to update source-repositories or anything
in dib.

You could just write your install type implementation under
nova-foo-install, then define DIB_INSTALLTYPE_nova=foo in your
environment, and the scripts under nova-foo-install would get run during
the image build.

Source installs (any scripts under <install_dir_prefix>-source-install)
is the default install type for all elements.

README.md

This is the base element.

Almost all users will want to include this in their disk image build, as it includes a lot of useful functionality.

Notes:

  • If you are getting warnings during the build about your locale being missing, consider installing/generating the relevant locale. This may be as simple as having language-pack-XX installed in the pre-install stage

  • This element ensures /tmp/ccache will be available in the chroot during the root, extra-data, pre-install, install and post-install stages. /tmp/ccache is unavailable during block-device, finalise and cleanup stages as it will have been automatically unmounted by then.
