e9fea01685 live tweaks for x11 rescue
New stuff:
* distro/live-icewm -- basic icewm livecd with autologin;
* distro/live-rescue -- yet another gparted^Wrescue CD.

A better part of base+rescue tagged pkglist split off into
extra+rescue where the content belongs.

Thanks ruslandh@ for proposing to do a graphical rescue with some
particular tools (albeit qt4-fsarchiver clearly needs more work).

9cedefdba9 introduced add_feature function
The features might get copy-pasted (or even copied-and-pruned)
when initialized; there's an unneccessary duplication of the
function name in the line adding it to FEATURES list, thus
prone to being forgotten and causing some havoc later on.

It was wrong in the first place but tackling this with some
double-colon rules ran into terminality issues, and further
tortures were considered unneccessary.

The current solution isn't perfect (no completely transparent
function name registration upon corresponding target being called)
but at least it is an improvement...

720a579690 wash, rinse, repeat
install2 cleanups:

- functionally indifferent ones: particularly, install2/*/98system's
  "mkdir -p /image" was superfluous as it was done by that time already
  by sub.in/stage2/image-scripts.d/00stage1

- taken apart, prepared for tags: so far it's a mostly moot change
  since the installer cleanup scripts themselves are mostly the same as
  preceding 90cleanup was (with some additions corresponding to recent
  kernel development); it's still unclear what the mechanism for
  configuring the cleanups in effect will be, either directory/package
  regex lists or tagged scripts excluded from execution by yet another tag

fixes:

- image.in/Makefile: fix metadata related test; the actual test was
  assuming that stage1 kernel means installer, which is not the case
  since generic stage2 introduction; oh well

- 85cleanup-lowmem: a "_" too much was the culprit in destroying the
  needed translations along with those deemed superfluous; thanks go to
  Oleg Ivanov and Lenar Shakirov for finding the bug and proposing the
  fix altogether

additions:

- features.in/Makefile: reworked help target; it was rather inaccessible
  due to BUILDDIR normally undefined at the time of direct make
  invocation, and BUILDDIR is normally defined during normal builds
  anyways so let's try it this way.

- README++

daydreams:

- 01-genbasedir: we should drop bzip2 compressed pkglists some day
  but see genbasedir and apt-cdrom first, 90-pkg.sh (alterator-pkg)
  will fail miserably otherwise

cf81cc6785 live, rescue, and use tags
It's still very immature -- base lists should be really base,
and functionality should be sorted out in more consistent way.
So far moved to tagged lists (which need some more experimentation
anyways to get both lists and their use more elegant).

- fixed live.iso (now actually useful):
  + extra cleanup was being done (coming from install2 case)
  + root user was password blocked
  + there was no unprivileged user (added "altlinux" w/o password)
  + added xdm setup hook for future X-based livecd flavours
  + several picks for a less slim "base" list
  + xdm login
- tweaked rescue.iso (added ext3grep)

f5a8b89381 stage2 based live subprofiles, updated docs
- introduced generic stage2 subprofile (non-standalone)
- ported installer and rescue over to stage2/{install2,rescue}
- initial stage2/live (needs more work for sure)
- use make-initrd-propagator
- updated and somewhat extended doc/

NB: mind #26133, #26134
