8726be65e3 core: Finish implementing `override replace ./kernel*.x86_64.rpm
Previously we merged: #1228 AKA 12dc565b00
My recollection is that was working on it the background, while doing
something else, and I clearly didn't get to the point of testing it "for real".

There are many interlocking issues here to make this work.  For example,
the "remove RPM" logic needs special handling for the kernel, because
we also inject content into `/usr/lib/ostree-boot` and also generate
the initramfs, etc.

The architecture I chose is to have the core *detect* when a kernel
is changed, and also call into the kernel processing code when removing
a kernel package.  But the logic for doing kernel reinstallation client-side
is best alongside the initramfs generation logic which already existed
in the sysroot upgrader.

I extended the test suite to cover what was failing before, and I
tested this interactively.  But I'm uncertain about adding a test
for actually *booting* into the GA kernel as it's quite possible
some bits in userspace rely on a newer kernel.  Fixing this properly
really wants some infrastructure to better "re-version" an existing
package without changing its content.

12dc565b00 core: Set installonly to ensure we only have one kernel
The goal here is to support `override replace kernel.x86_64.rpm`.

There's a whole lot of logic in libdnf to support having multiple
kernel packages installed.  AIUI, that was implemented because:

1) The kernel is the biggest source of regressions
2) It'd be quite noticeable if all of your kernel modules were deleted

Of course point 2) applies to a lot of userspace too...that's something
rpm-ostree fixes of course.

Anyways, in some testing all we need to do really is just turn that
logic off unconditionally.
