The first iterations of wic very shortsightedly catered to two
specific use-cases and added special-purpose params for those cases so
that they could be directly given their corresponding boot artifacts.
(hdddir and staging_data_dir).
As more use-cases are added, it becomes rather obvious that such a
scheme doens't scale, and additionally causes confusion for plugin
writers.
This removes those special cases and states explicitly in the help
text that plugins are responsible for locating their own boot
artifacts.

This reverts commit 7ce1dc13f91df70e8a2f420e7c3eba51cbc4bd48.
This patch broke the assumption that a non-null boot_dir means a
user-assigned (-b command-line param) value.
Reverting doesn't break anything, since the case it was added for
doesn't use the boot_dir for anything except debugging anyhow.
Fixes [YOCTO #6290]

Running wic with -e to use artifacts from a named image, bootimg_dir was
always passed as empty string to partition source plugins. The patch
sets bootimg_dir to current value of DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE, as bootloader
artifacts end up in that location as well.

In order to reuse the existing subcommand infrastructure to display
various general-purpose help topics, add a dummy 'help_topic'
subcommand and usage string. This allows users to invoke general help
topics by the natural form 'wic help <topic>' even though topic
doesn't correspond to a real subcommand.

.wks file are looked in 'scripts/lib/image/canned-wks' directory on all
BBLAYERS variable returned by bitbake environment. If found, it will
be used.
The user could create your own .wks and keep it inside its layers. For
now the path must be <layer-dir>/scripts/lib/image/canned-wks.

The wic command-line param --rootfs-dir gets generalized to support
multiple directories. Each '--rootfs-dir' could be connected using a
special string, that should be present in .wks. I.e:
wic create ... --rootfs-dir rootfs1=/some/rootfs/dir \
--rootfs-dir rootfs2=/some/other/rootfs/dir
part / --source rootfs --rootfs-dir="rootfs1" --ondisk sda --fstype=ext3 \
--label primary --align 1024
part /standby --source rootfs --rootfs-dir="rootfs2" \
--ondisk sda --fstype=ext3 --label secondary --align 1024
The user could use harded-code directory instead of connectors. Like this:
wic create ... hard-coded-path.wks -r /some/rootfs/dir
part / --source rootfs --ondisk sda --fstype=ext3 --label primary --align 1024
part /standby --source rootfs --rootfs-dir=/some/rootfs/dir \
--ondisk sda --fstype=ext3 --label secondary --align 1024

If a user uses the -e option and specifies a machine that hasn't been
built or uses the wrong .wks script for the build artifacts pointed to
by the current machine, we should point that out for obvious cases.

Since eight unique files import rpm, perform a check at the top level
for the existence of the rpm module print a sensible error message if it
is not. This may be able to be removed if some of the core rpm
dependencies are removed from the mic libs.
Also check for urlgrabber.
This avoids a bracktrace in the event the modules are not installed
which can be very off-putting to would-be users.

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.
