When the magic-proxy script could not find a valid InRelease file for the
configured timestamp, it would fall back to serving the canonical version
of it. This meant that builds would succeed, even though snap-shotting the
repository failed.
This update makes the script return HTTP 404 when an InRelease by-hash
link for a given combination of mirror, suite and timestamp cannot be
found.
Installing policyrcd-script-zg2 doesn't quite do this because of the way
that live-build installs its own temporary version of policy-rc.d. The
only remotely sensible way I can see to deal with this is to create the
symlink manually.
Remove wants from local-fs.target, add wants from the uuid device instead.
Tested by applying these changes from pre-pivot-root by modifying
/root files in place whilst booting with break=bottom.
Util-linux 2.33 fixed mount --rbind --make-rslave which did not pass MS_REC
with MS_BIND and livecd-rootfs did only --bind --make-rslave effectively with
prior mount versions.
While mount --rbind --rslave are properly passed the flags to mount()
unmounting did not work cleanly with --make-rslave.
To clearly stop propagation of umount, --make-private is used instead of
--make-rslave and it is always set before umounts. Umount -R is replaced
with a simple umount since submounts are tore down in teardown_mountpoint()
earlier.

When the REPO_SNAPSHOT_STAMP variable is set, the auto/build script will attempt
to launch a transparent HTTP proxy on port 8080, and insert an iptables rule to
redirect all outgoing HTTP requests to this proxy.
The proxy, contained in the `magic-proxy` Python script, examines each request
and silently overrides those pointing to InRelease files or files that are
listed in InRelease files. It will instead provide the contents of the requested
file as it was at REPO_SNAPSHOT_STAMP, by downloading the corresponding asset
"by hash".
Adds a function reduce_pass_size which removes duplicated files between
layers. A duplicate file is a file with same path, size, mode, owners
and content on 2 related layers.
We don't want to regress the ubuntu desktop traditional image when
livecd-rootfs lands uncordinated with ubuntu-cdimage & debian-cd.
Decoupling enables us to:
- land livecd-rootfs (no change for ubuntu-desktop project,
ubuntu-desktop:ubiquity-ng can be tested once the 2 others branches
lands)
- land ubuntu-cdimage & debian-cd for publishing any arbitrary squashfs
names
- finally, revert that commit and land it in livecd-rootfs to transform
the traditional ubuntu-desktop image to a layered approach.
