instead of conditionally writing deb-src lines, it is **much** neater if
we use sed to optionally removed them at the end.

- prefer using `which` over hard coded paths
- it is redundant to check that the bin pointed to the return of
`which` exists and is executable, `which` already gives us
assurance of that if it returns true!
- the redirection of output (`2>/dev/null`) seems to be
unnecessary from my testing.
the instances relatnig to fdisk and losetup in functions/defaults.sh have
been left as they are since they get executed by `lb config` which can run
without sudo elevation unlike `lb build` and in that case `which` would
fail to find these binaries resulting in error.
this also fixes a bug showing an error for missing debootstrap - this tool
requires sudo privileges to run and thus is not found via a none elevated
which search.

the existing logic for obtaining a list of firmware packages always
downloaded a fresh copy of the archive content file, deleting the file
already in the cache. here we move to actually making use of the cache.
this helps when building multiple times, at least for the same distro. the
package list obtained is rarely going to change after all. it could of
course differ between distros, but the cache is per-distro, as it has
always been.
we of course here switch to caching each of the archive-area files
individually rather than having one file that gets overwritten (or
appended to in the case of when we kept the decompressed file).

the existing logic was to decompress the contents file from the downloaded
archive to disk, then process it to obtain a package list. the largest
one by far is for 'main'; 'non-free' and 'contrib' are tiny in comparison.
for sid-amd64 currently, the archive file is 37 MB, while the decompressed
file it contains is 592.3 MB.
we always delete the files and download afresh (currently), and a previous
commit optimised by deleting the files once we're done with them to avoid
wasting disk space leaving them behind.
here we switch to storing the downloaded compressed file to disk instead,
reducing disk space usage (and IO) by hundreds of megabytes; piping the
decompression directly into awk instead of having awk read from the stored
file.
this moves the appending of new items into the list back within the archive
area loop, which is fine since we're replacing the file for each loop now
so the previous issue relating to appending is of no concern.

Edit: There were four copies of the same logic to keep in sync;
Originally this patch deduplicated each file, but leaving a copy of
the new function in each, thus reducing the duplication but not
eliminating it. A later patch moved it into a shared function file
following further enhancements to the code in question. This has
since been revised to have the function moved to a shared file here,
which simplifies and gives a cleaner diff.

These functions are specific to handling packages stored in the
cache, not other files. They are also always used with the same
`cache/packages.` prefix to the path.

only a couple were in use and only by unused echo helpers which have now

all of these echo helpers are essentially 'logging' functions with output
always intended for stdout/stderr. lack of explicit stdout/stderr direction
means that their output could be captured unintentionally should they be
used within a function designed to construct a string.

available values currently are memtest86+|memtest86|none; "false" is
presumably handled for backwards compatibility
there is no need to handle this in individual scripts. the right place

`false` and `none` make no sense as choices for this option. Here we
replace `false` with `none`, and remove `true`.
Note that `true` was treated as an alias for netinst (see the changes to
source_disk and and binary_disk).
For backwards compatibility we still allow `true` and `false` by converting
them to `netinst` and `none` respectively, whilst printing a warning to
encourage users to move to `netinst`/`none`.

The leading space ends up in the FLAVOUR substitution in live.cfg.

This makes it possible to build an image against a first distribution
(--distribution-chroot) and have the resulting image point to another
distribution (--distribution-binary). We can use this to build against a
snapshot and have the result use the original distribution that was
snapshotted.

Use a similar trick as for chroot_live-packages.

Before Stretch there was an special amd64 kernel in the i386 arch repo.
So if you wanted to install an amd64 kernel alongside an i386 system
you did not need an additional arch repo.
Debian added multiarch support. That way you can install library packages
from multiple architectures on the same machine.
So there is no longer a need for having an amd64 kernel in i386 arch repo.
You can add an amd64 arch repo to an i386 arch system and fetch the amd64
kernel from the am64 arch repo.
live-build can be setup to use several linux kernel flavours in a single
image.
So in the days previous to this patch you could issue:
lb config --linux-flavours "486 amd64"
to use both 486 and amd64 kernel flavours.
Adding additional arch support to linux flavours poses two problems:
* Packages need to have its arch suffix (e.g. amd64:amd64).
If the suffix is not there apt-get insists on search amd64 kernel
package on i386 arch repo and, of course, fails to find it.
* The rest of the code which handles labels (bootloader config files)
or installed filenames (kernel images themselves) do not use the arch suffix.
This patch adds foreign architecture package support to
linux kernel flavours having taken those problems into account.
Practical example usage: i386 system and extra amd64 kernel.
First add amd64 foreign architecture in your i386 system
thanks to:
dpkg --add-architecture amd64
apt-get update
.
Finally enable amd64 kernel from amd64 arch alongside the
i386 system's 686 kernel thanks to:
lb config --architectures i386 --linux-flavours "686 amd64:amd64"

replace deprecated httpredir.debian.org to deb.debian.org and use
it as default mirror since it is appropriate for users

Check_package will just add a missing dependency to the LB_PACKAGES
todo list if it doesn't find it, when build-with-chroot is true, even if
the check was not for the chroot.
Instead error out if the check is not done for the chroot, e.g.
Check_package host /bin/foo foo

Open Network Install Environment is an open image format used by
networking vendor to ship a standardised image for networking white
box switches.
ONIE hardware takes this image at boot and a script to chain load
into the final environment via kexec. We can support Debian and
derivatives on such systems by packing an ISO which then gets
unpacked, kexec'ed and live-booted.
A base ONIE system can be tested in QEMU by building a VM following
these instrunctions:
https://github.com/opencomputeproject/onie/blob/master/machine/kvm_x86_64/INSTALL
Once built, boot onie-recovery-x86_64-kvm_x86_64-r0.iso in QEMU/libvirt
and on the console there will be the terminal prompt. Check the IP
assigned by libvirt and then scp the live image (ssh access is enabled
as root without password...). Then the .bin can be booted with:
ONIE-RECOVERY:/ # onie-nos-install /tmp/live.hybrid.iso-ONIE.bin
The implementation is inspired by ONIE's own scripts that can be found
at:
https://github.com/opencomputeproject/onie/blob/master/contrib/debian-iso/cook-bits.sh
A new option, --onie (false by default) can be set to true to enable
building this new format in addition to an ISO.
An additional option, --onie-kernel-cmdline can be used to specify
additional options that the ONIE system should use when kexec'ing the
final image.
Note that only iso or hybrid-iso formats are supported.

Support for UEFI Secure Boot is modelled after how it currently works
in Ubuntu and on how it is going to work on Debian.
A minimal bootloader, shim, is used as the first-stage and it then
loads grub. Both have to be signed.
shim-signed is already available in Debian so the filenames are
already established, and the grub2 repository and packaging is common
between the 2 distros so we can already be reasonably sure of what it
is going to be.
So if both are available, copy /usr/lib/shim/shim[x64|aa64].efi.signed
as boot[x64|aa64].efi so that UEFI loads it first, and copy
/usr/lib/grub/[x86_64|arm64]-efi-signed/grub[x64|aa64].efi.signed as
grub[x64|aa64].efi.
This grub2 EFI monolithic image is currently hard-coded in grub2's
repository to look for a config file in efi/debian, so make a copy
of the previously added minimal grub.cfg that loads the real one in
that directory in both the fat32 and ISO 9660 partitions.
The new option --uefi-secure-boot can be set to auto (default,
enable or disable.
In auto, the lack of the signed EFI binaries is intentionally left as a
soft failure - live-build will simply fallback to using the locally
generated non-signed grub2 monolithic EFI binary as the only
bootloader. Given the difficulties surrounding the Secure Boot
signing infrastructure this approach gives the most flexibility and
makes sure things will "just work" once the packages are available,
without the need to change anything in the configuration.
This will also greatly help downstream distributions and users who
want to do self-signing.
The enable or disable options work as expected.

As done by the linux source package since its version 4.4.

Previously, Check_package would only show an error when host packages
are missing on a non-apt system. On apt system, the packages would be
added to _LB_PACKAGES, which causes them to be installed in the chroot,
not in the host (or not at all if Install_package is not called). This
behaviour could break the build.
This applies to either packages that must be present in the host (as
checked with `Check_package host ...`), as well as packages that can be
either in the chroot or host (as checked with `Check_package chroot`)
when LB_BUILD_WITH_CHROOT=false.

Recent versions of Linux, parted or some other bit of software cause
partition devices, like /dev/loop0p1 to be created when running parted
mkpart. However, these devices are not cleaned up when running
losetup -d to remove /dev/loop0 later, so they linger around and confuse
mkfs (which refuses to make a filesystem, thinking there are partitions):
mkfs.fat 4.1 (2017-01-24)
mkfs.vfat: Partitions or virtual mappings on device '/dev/loop0', not making filesystem (use -I to override)
To prevent this behaviour, pass --partscan to losetup when adding a new
partition, to clean up any lingering partitions. It seems losetup does not
accept --partscan when deleting a loop device, to clean up at that point, but
since binary_hdd mounts the partition last, there should not be any lingering
partition devices after live-build is done.
The --partscan option is available since util-linux 2.21 (released in 2012), so
it should be fairly safe to pass it unconditionally.
