671c788e3a build-distro: drop sortfile on the floor
Its support was dropped in mkimage some time ago
since xorriso semantics changed quite considerably
and the tweak that was done here is now performed
out-of-box thus no longer needed.

804cedbca5 features.in/build-distro: initial isosort implementation
mkisofs can use hints on file disposition; this needs some
support on mkimage side but that's pretty trivial (hope to
see it in 0.2.2+).

ae7139f8b6 initial repo feature
We've got some parts of it in build-distro feature,
and some went to dev feature for no real reason.

But a bare installer might go without package base,
and LiveCDs other than live-builder might find local
repository useful given aufs2 root overlay.

Now the overall scheme is more straightforward:
- a distro:
  + asks that a package repo be included
  + cares to further add the packages to it
- a repo feature:
  + pulls in sub/main for it to happen
  + provides genbasedir script to create repo metadata
  + supplements live feature with repo configuration

d5a5941f96 official {distro,ve}/* support
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)
