3f547e2504 documentation: use paths relative to toplevel dir
This change is done to reduce ambiguity in some cases;
the previous intention has been to ease navigation when
staying in a particular directory, now it's been changed
in favour of convenient toplevel `git grep' in fact.

Both variants have their pros and cons, I just find myself
leaning to this one by now hence the commit.  Feel free to
provide constructive criticism :)

Some path-related bitrot has also been fixed while at that.

9c6b706576 isohybrid: drop postprocessing, xorriso is enough
The original mkisofs would only care for the proper ISO9660 image
but we've switched to xorriso which is able to perform the hack
to yield UEFI hybrid images; thus no need for the postprocessing.

Requires mkimage >= 0.2.5 and xorriso (obviously).

c83cc111a6 initial kernel and metadata features
This further refines the modular build by making
metadata being a clearly separated feature rather
than having to rely on runtime tests, and also by
moving the code which cares for kernel bits of base
installation (.base list) in a feature of its own.

There's more to it but let's get the ball rolling first.

6fadf7e0e9 initial isohybrid support
Here we go with postprocessing priorities along the way
as ISO hybridization has to occur before implanting
final MD5 sum (which must happen earlier than e.g. some
external MD5SUM file generation).

Unfortunately proper dependencies aren't applicable here
(though I'd like to be proved wrong on this one).

Please note that this needs propagator > 20101130-alt9
for automatic mode to work (has also been worked around
in gfxboot case with design-bootloader-source-6.0-alt1).

Thanks rom_as@ for asking about the hybrid image status
and helping out with testing.
