.gear/mkimage-profiles.spec: initial package

Also added to the live-builder ISO which is now self-hosted
(sans full repo): one can build an image capable of rebuilding
itself (which is not that useful) and of building other goodies
on some temporarily unused RAM-filled hardware (which is the goal).

+%description
+mkimage-profiles is a collection of bits and pieces useful for
+distributions construction: it contains package lists, features,
+and whole subprofiles (like "rescue" building block) for you
+to choose from, and some ready-made image recipes as well.
+
+Make no mistake: constructing distributions isn't just fun, it takes
+a lot of passion and knowledge to produce a non-trivial one.  So m-p
+(the short nick for mkimage-profiles) is complex too.  If you need
+-- or want -- to make just a few tweaks to an existing recipe, it might
+be easier to comprehend the generated profile (aka builddir) which
+contains only the needed subprofiles, script hooks and package lists
+and is way more compact.
+
+Virtual environment template caches (OpenVZ/LXC) can be made either.
+
+In short, setup hasher (http://en.altlinux.org/hasher) and here we go:
+  cd %mpdir
+  head README
+  make distro/syslinux.iso
+
+But if you're into regular distro hacking and are not afraid of make
+and modest metaprogramming (some code generation and introspection),
+welcome to the metaprofile itself; read the docs and get the git:

+%setup
