- Followup fix for debootstrap called only once
  A recent change skipped calling debootstrap if the allow-existing-root
  flag was passed in combination with apt as the package manager.
  However this is not enough. If you say allow-existing-root but
  the existing root is empty or not valid to continue with chroot
  and apt the debootstrap phase should not be skipped. This commit
  checks if apt works in the chroot such that we can assume
  debootstrap has done its job and can be skipped

- Bump version: 9.24.4 → 9.24.5

- Fixed include processing
  This commit fixes several issue connected with the use of
  the <include> directive:
  First and foremost the XSLT chain was broken in a way that
  the include XSLT in combination with the PrettyPrinter XSLT
  were called not in the chain of stylesheets but together.
  This results in XML descriptions which duplicated the content
  and went invalid
  Another change is, when the include XSLT is called in the chain.
  This commit moves it to become the very first processing
  instruction such that the included data is part of all subsequent
  XSLT stylesheets. This also allows to use older schema versions
  in included XML data and they get automatically converted through
  the chain of XSLT stylesheets.
  Last change is the evaluation of the from= attribute value. This
  value is now interpreted as an URI. Currently only local URIs are
  supported. The reason to do this is because XSLT when processing

- Fixed use of LUKS encrypted images with empty pass
  For initial provisioning of LUKS encrypted disk images an
  empty passphrase key is handy to avoid interaction in the
  deployment process. However, the dracut kiwi modules were
  lacking the information that the luks keyfile could be an
  empty passphrase key which must not be opened with the
  potential risk to get prompted for input. This commit
  introduces a new profile environment variable evaluated
  by the dracut kiwi lib code to open the LUKS pool and
  allows to distinguish the situation on key files with
  or without a passphrase

- Add support for toplevel include directive(s)
  On the toplevel of an image description you can now
  specify include directive(s) like in the following
  example
  <image ...>
  ...
  <include from="filename_a.xml"/>
  ...
  <include from="filename_b.xml"/>
  </image>
  At the place of their occurrence the include statement
  will be replaced with the contents of the given filename.
  The implementation is based on a XSLT stylesheet and
  applies very early in the process. The stylesheet reads
  the contents of the given file as XML document().
  Thus only valid XML documents gets accepted by this
  include concept. This Fixes #1929 and is related to
  Issue #1918

- Fixed error reporting for stateful description
  Errors due to missing or no type definitions were reported

  avoid showing object references and includes information
  about the applied profiles used for this XML state.

- Fixed uninstall handling via dnf, microdnf, zypper
  The above package managers supports uninstall instructions
  like 'iwl*'. In kiwi there was code checking via rpm if
  the packages given to uninstall actually exists. That code
  does not work if the given package to uninstall is an
  instruction that matches a pattern. Therefore if we use
  the uninstall section in the kiwi image description, just
  pass the provided information to the package manager and
  don't try to be clever in kiwi itself.

- Fixed condition for GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID="true"
  The grub config parameter GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID must only
  be set if the device persistence setting is not UUID. However,
  in kiwi UUID device names are the default and doesn't have to
  be expressed explicitly. Therefore the condition to check
  for different than 'by-uuid' is wrong for the default case were
  no device persistence setting exists. This results in a wrong
  grub option to be set. This commit fixes it in a way to disable
  UUID device names in grub if the only other device persistency
  setting in kiwi named: 'by-label' is explicitly configured.
  This Fixes #1842

- Added force_trailing_slash argument to sync_data
  A speciality of the rsync tool is that it behaves differently

  and its contents are synced to the target_dir. For example:

  1. $ rsync -a source target

  └── source
  └── some_data
  2. $ rsync -a source/ target

- Fixed fstab entry for swap on LVM
  If an LVM setup is used together with a swapspace the
  swap is created as a volume in the volume group. The
  required fstab entry to activate swap was not using
  the LVM exposed device but the UUID of the low level
  block layer. This low level device is not created
  by udev because LVM takes over precedence in this
  case.

  directory name. The sub-part was choosen by an index
  based path split which worked for /tmp but no longer for
  /var/tmp. With tempdir now being also a commandline
  option this code has to become more robust.

- Fixed test-image-disk-legacy integration test
  The test did not set a device filter for ramdisk devices but
  activates unattended mode. In this mode the first device in
  the list is taken and this is a ramdisk device which is
  by default too small to be used for the installation. Thus
  the install usually fails. This commit sets the device filter
  for ramdisk devices such that only associated disk devices
  can be used for the install process, which is the purpose
  of this test. This is related to Issue OSInside/kiwi-functional-tests#8

- Update kiwi installation documentation
  The installation chapter contained information about the manual

  were also rpm specific but we also support install via other
  package mangers the complete chapter was a bit reworked and
  should be more straight forward now. This Fixes #1799

- Added option to set the image target architecture
  The option --target-arch allows to set the architecture
  used to build the image. By default this is the host
  architecture. Please note, if the specified architecture
  name does not match the host architecture and is therefore
  requesting a cross architecture image build, it's important
  to understand that for this process to work a preparatory
  step to support the image architecture and binary format
  on the building host is required and is not considered a
  responsibility of kiwi. There will be a followup effort
  on providing a plugin for kiwi which should be used to
  manage the needed binfmt settings for cross arch image

  this kiwi issued a 'blkid --uuid' command but that requires
  udev device names to be present on the host. The open
  buildservice workers do not run udev and fails apart the
  standard. This commit refactors the root cmdline setup
  to work with the device node as it exists during build
  time such that the blkid call runs against that device
  node.

- Fixed API vs. CLI inconsistency
  when using kiwi as API the program fails with a usage message
  from the Cli class. The kiwi.cli module should not be imported
  except for kiwi comandline tasks. It has turned out that the
  RuntimeConfig class which is used in several places in different
  API classes imports Cli and creates an instance of it to check
  for a global option. This causes major issues for all programs
  which uses the kiwi API but not the command line interface because
  the docopt call in Cli() expects a valid docstring which only
  exists in kiwi's cli.py. This commit fixes the inconsistency
  and allows people to use the kiwi API independent of any
  command line interface. Fixes #1755
