Per the comments, BASE_SEED was initially used to identify the seed in the
flavor to use for identifying preseeded snaps, and later was also used to
identify which "minimal-remove" seed to apply to an image.
The first usage is now obsolete after a refactor; we now correctly detect
snaps from any of the included seeds without needing an explicit
declaration.
The second usage only applies to installer images that are NOT using layered
squashfs, since for these images 'minimal' is a separate squashfs layer
rather than a list of packages to remove after the fact.
Refactor this code to eliminate pointless definitions of BASE_SEED and
define it only for the subset of flavors today that:
- have a 'minimal-remove' seed
- are not using layered squashfs.

* live-build/auto/config: for ubuntu-server, consider the actual kernel
flavor when dealing with netboot layers - even if we don't really care.
If the previous if statement checking if PASSES_TO_LAYERS is true,
then the last return code be non-zero and a return statement with no
argument will return the error code of the if statement thus exiting
the script. This is not our intent. So we need to return 0 here when
layer name as already been registered
The unminimize script will try to install the lxd snap using the shim script
`/usr/sbin/lxd` from the lxd-installer package.
Previously `unminimize` was using `snap`
to install `lxd` directly which was being diverted by diverting the `snap` command.
This is no longer the case so we can remove `/usr/sbin/lxd` from the lxd-installer package
if it exists and then redirect any calls to `/usr/sbin/lxd` to `/bin/true`
This is a cherry pick forward port from Jammy livecd-rootfs version 2.765.37.

mount_disk_image function expects root partition to be at number 1. But
some images require the root partition to be at other some other number.
For example, EKS Anywhere images for bare metal are used with Tinkerbell
deployment with a default configuration that expects the root device to
be found at /dev/sda2. The knowledge of the root device path is needed
to modify certain files in the root filesystem (e.g. cloud-init configs)
for the machine to join Kubernetes cluster control plane.
The partition number can be changed in the hook by "sgidsk --transpose".
Allow the hook to use mount_disk_image with custom root partition number
by making it an optional third parameter that defaults to 1.
This makes the hook ok to use cross-flavor.
We could also move glib-compile-schemas to a separate hook, to ensure we never
silently fail because glib-compile-schemas is broken/missing.
When the files we're creating in the live layer have static content, ship
them in live-build/ubuntu/includes.chroot.minimal.standard.live instead of
generating them from live-build/ubuntu/hooks/020-ubuntu-live.chroot_early.
Also fixes the fact that
live-build/ubuntu/hooks/020-ubuntu-live.chroot_early was incorrectly writing
to /root in the previous upload instead of /usr.
Somewhere along the line, we started trying to add packages to the live
environment of flavor "preinstalled" images. But:
- we don't build preinstalled images for any flavors
- the preinstalled images for projects like cloud images and wsl are
explicitly excepted from this code
- the only desktop project we do produce preinstalled images for, Ubuntu
on Raspberry Pi, uses ubuntu-image for building so this code is never
reached
ppc64el still uses /boot/vmlinux so we need to determine the boot file name as non ppc64el use /boot/vmlinuz. This
is then used to determine the kernel major minor version installed so that the correct apparmor features can be used
during snap preseeding. This preseeding was failing for ppc64el for the mantic 6.5 kernel as the /boot/vmlinuz
being checked did not exist.
