Switch to using libhif as a git submodule

So I was trying to hack on my host's copy of rpm-ostree inside a pet
docker container, but ran into a conflict with libhif since dnf uses
it.  I think we basically need to *always* build the bundled path,
rather than what I'm doing with CAHC and FADC where it's built as a
regular RPM.

It's not really sustainable right now for us to have both bundled and
not-bundled build paths - and we need to support co-installation with
dnf.

Another major issue is that we want to version lock with libhif -
right now our CI and both CAHC/FADC track libhif master, but that
means everything breaks if libhif breaks and we don't immediately
port.

git submodules solve all of these problems - the same as we're doing
with libglnx.

libglnx is *designed* for use as a git submodule, where as libhif
needs to support being both bundled and not-bundled.  So we end up
with some hacks on our side, but I think it's all not too bad.  I've
marked build rules with `# bundled libhif` so we know where to find
them later when libhif is stable.

For the regular hack/build/test cycles, creating a new deployment each
time becomes overkill. We add a new `make vmoverlay` target which
directly overlays the newly built binaries on an unlocked system.

everytime while still allowing the host's repo to be fully configured.

rpm-ostree using the vagrant box.

Fix the CONTRIBUTING.md link and add a link to HACKING.md in README.md.
