wic: Initial code for wic (OpenEmbedded Image Creator)

Initial implementation of the 'wic' command.

The 'wic' command generates partitioned images from existing
OpenEmbedded build artifacts.  Image generation is driven by
partitioning commands contained in an 'Openembedded kickstart' (.wks)
file specified either directly on the command-line or as one of a
selection of canned .wks files (see 'wic list images').  When applied
to a given set of build artifacts, the result is an image or set of
images that can be directly written onto media and used on a
particular system.

'wic' is based loosely on the 'mic' (Meego Image Creator) framework,
but heavily modified to make direct use of OpenEmbedded build
artifacts instead of package installation and configuration, things
already incorporated int the OE artifacts.

The name 'wic' comes from 'oeic' with the 'oe' diphthong promoted to
the letter 'w', because 'oeic' is impossible to remember or pronounce.

This covers the mechanics of invoking and providing help for the
command and sub-commands; it contains hooks for future commits to
connect with the actual functionality, once implemented.

Help is integrated into the 'wic' command - see that for details on
usage.

+
+DESCRIPTION
+    This command creates an OpenEmbedded image based on the 'OE
+    kickstart commands' found in the <wks file>.
+
+    In order to do this, wic needs to know the locations of the
+    various build artifacts required to build the image.
+
+    Users can explicitly specify the build artifact locations using
+    the -r, -b, -k, and -n options.  See below for details on where
+    the corresponding artifacts are typically found in a normal
+    OpenEmbedded build.
+
+    Alternatively, users can use the -e option to have 'mic' determine
+    those locations for a given image.  If the -e option is used, the
+    user needs to have set the appropriate MACHINE variable in
+    local.conf, and have sourced the build environment.
+
+    The -e option is used to specify the name of the image to use the
+    artifacts from e.g. core-image-sato.
+
+    The -r option is used to specify the path to the /rootfs dir to
+    use as the .wks rootfs source.
+
+    The -b option is used to specify the path to the dir containing
+    the boot artifacts (e.g. /EFI or /syslinux dirs) to use as the
+    .wks bootimg source.
+
+    The -k option is used to specify the path to the dir containing
+    the kernel to use in the .wks bootimg.
+
+    The -n option is used to specify the path to the native sysroot
+    containing the tools to use to build the image.
+
+    The -s option is used to skip the build check.  The build check is
+    a simple sanity check used to determine whether the user has
+    sourced the build environment so that the -e option can operate
+    correctly.  If the user has specified the build artifact locations
+    explicitly, 'wic' assumes the user knows what he or she is doing
+    and skips the build check.
+
+    When 'wic -e' is used, the locations for the build artifacts
+    values are determined by 'wic -e' from the output of the 'bitbake
+    -e' command given an image name e.g. 'core-image-minimal' and a
+    given machine set in local.conf.  In that case, the image is
+    created as if the following 'bitbake -e' variables were used:
+
+    -r:        IMAGE_ROOTFS
+    -k:        STAGING_KERNEL_DIR
+    -n:        STAGING_DIR_NATIVE
+    -b:        HDDDIR and STAGING_DATA_DIR (handlers decide which to use)
+
+    If 'wic -e' is not used, the user needs to select the appropriate
+    value for -b (as well as -r, -k, and -n).
+
+    The -o option can be used to place the image in a directory with a
+    different name and location.
+
+    As an alternative to the wks file, the image-specific properties
+    that define the values that will be used to generate a particular
+    image can be specified on the command-line using the -i option and
+    supplying a JSON object consisting of the set of name:value pairs
+    needed by image creation.
+
+    The set of properties available for a given image type can be
+    listed using the 'wic list' command.

+    specified option or property needed by the image creation process.
+
+    This command enumerates the set of available canned images as well
+    as help for those images.  It also can be used to enumerate the
+    complete set of possible values for a specified option or property
+    needed by the image creation process.
+
+    The first form enumerates all the available 'canned' images.
+    These are actually just the set of .wks files that have been moved
+    into the /scripts/lib/image/canned-wks directory).
+
+    The second form lists the detailed help information for a specific
+    'canned' image.
+
+    The third form enumerates all the possible values that exist and
+    can be specified in a OE kickstart (wks) file.  The output of this
+    can be used by the third form to print the description and
+    possible values of a specific property.
+
+    The fourth form enumerates all the possible options that exist for
+    the set of properties specified in a given OE kickstart (wks)
+    file.  If the -o option is specified, the list of properties, in
+    addition to being displayed, will be written to the specified file
+    as a JSON object.  In this case, the object will consist of the
+    set of name:value pairs corresponding to the (possibly nested)
+    dictionary of properties defined by the input statements used by
+    the image.  Some example output for the 'list <wks file>' command:
+
+    $ wic list test.ks
+    "part" : {
+        "mountpoint" : "/"
+        "fstype" : "ext3"
+    }
+    "part" : {
+        "mountpoint" : "/home"
+        "fstype" : "ext3"
+        "offset" : "10000"
+    }
+    "bootloader" : {
+        "type" : "efi"
+    }
+    .
+    .
+    .
+
+    Each entry in the output consists of the name of the input element
+    e.g. "part", followed by the properties defined for that
+    element enclosed in braces.  This information should provide
+    sufficient information to create a complete user interface with.
+
+    The final form enumerates all the possible values that exist and
+    can be specified for any given OE kickstart (wks) property.  If
+    the -o option is specified, the list of values for the given
+    property, in addition to being displayed, will be written to the
+    specified file as a JSON object.  In this case, the object will
+    consist of the set of name:value pairs corresponding to the array
+    of property values associated with the property.
+
+    $ wic list property part
+        ["mountpoint", "where the partition should be mounted"]
+        ["fstype", "filesytem type of the partition"]
+            ["ext3"]
+            ["ext4"]
+            ["btrfs"]
+            ["swap"]
+        ["offset", "offset of the partition within the image"]

+# use to generate bootable images.  Invoking it without any arguments
+# will display help screens for the 'wic' command and list the
+# available 'wic' subcommands.  Invoking a subcommand without any
+# arguments will likewise display help screens for the specified
+# subcommand.  Please use that interface for detailed help.
