Copying big amount of data results in bad performance as data is
written in chunks of 4kiB (8 * 512 bytes).

The default is not changed but can be overwritten.

This makes systemd generate a machine-id on early boot and prevents it from thinking we need
any "first boot" setup. We really don't want systemd thinking that, since we carefully prepared
our root file system.

This also ensures every live environment has a unique machine id.

Remove unused feature, just to save space
sizeof ext4 image (empty): 4.3M vs 403K (du airootfs.img)
sizeof used space (empty):  48M vs  20K (df)

Thanks Christian Hesse for initial tip.

Currently, when booting via HTTP, the airootfs.md5 file is downloaded to
/run/archiso/bootmnt/arch/. However, the checksum file is later assumed
to be located at "/run/archiso/bootmnt/arch/${arch}". Fix the _curl_get
invocation and directly place the file in the right directory.

Fixes a regression introduced in commit b3e1d313 ([archiso] Rework
checksum function, 2014-06-28).

Among other things, 36459f3a ([archiso] Drop aitab support, 2014-06-28)
removed the possibility to manually set a specific architecture by using
kernel parameters. This, however, is useful, e.g. when installing Arch
Linux on a device that reports itself as i586 but works fine with the
i686 flavor.

This is done better with run_once() in build.sh

This is done better with run_once() in build.sh

This is a task done in some way by run_once() on build.sh

Also remove _show_space_usage() irrelevant now when fs size is fixed and big

* Make it ISO9660 friendly (extra dot "." is replaced by "_")
* Was used when support both .fs.sfs and .sfs

Always create one filesystem of a fixed size (32G), format (ext4) and
know name "airootfs".

Simplify logic a lot.

There is no big overhead.
Space usage in ext4-1G is ~0.4M while in ext4-32G is ~4M.
Just use a big value to make all people happy.

Two purposes:
 * systemd filename friendly: "-" is used for "/" and must be escaped with "\x20"
 * ISO9660 filename friendly: "-" is replaced with "_"

Ucode updates correct problems with the processor. Without this (or a firmware update),
some machines fail to work in a stable manner. Make sure that the installation is smooth
by providing the ucode on the live system.

(While we're at it, sort packages.both alphabetically.)

Commit a526d961 broke this rule for virtio and other
devices where no ID_NET_* is exported.
