Эта фича определяет формат упаковки создаваемого образа.
На данный момент поддерживаются iso (загрузочный ISO9660
для дистрибутивов) и tar/cpio с возможностью сжатия gz/xz
(виртуальные окружения).

This is quite a large-scale change since mkimage-profiles got used to
baking distributions over the last year, and virtual environments are
quite different, so e.g. image.in/Makefile had to be split in two with
the main part of it moved into features.in/iso/lib/.

Short overview:

- features.in/Makefile: lib/ support
  (supporting VE images requires dynamic modifications
  to image.in/Makefile before starting the build;
  the most natural way to achieve that seems to use
  features mechanism along with makefile include dir)

- packaging format related part moved into features.in/pack
  (should be better prepared for diversity either)
- features.in/iso renamed to features.in/build-distro
- features.in/ve  renamed to features.in/build-ve
  + NB: these could not be merged as e.g. features.in/build
    due to completely different script hooks

- lib/image.mk renamed to lib/build.mk
- image, config, log postprocessing moved downstream
- added a sort of a topping in the form of lib/sugar.mk
- assorted style fixups (like ifeq usage)

- clean.mk: reliability fix (the problem was observed by Oleg Ivanov
  and me too but finally it did get the attention quantum)

- reviewed, updated and extended docs
  + QUICKSTART: should be[come] a step-by-step guide
    (thanks Leo-sp50 for prodiving feedback)

Actually this is the proper rewrite that was looming ever since
tgz support was introduced: there are multiple archive formats
supported by mkimage, and there are multiple compression methods
available as well.

So the bullet got bitten yet again along with the "goal parser"
which should be more straightforward by now.

Thanks dkr@ and mithraen@ for the inspiration of this evening.
