  Replace FAI with our own implementation

Just short of 700 new lines of Python, but covers running mmdebstrap and lots
of workarounds go away. I've titled it "minifai".

grml-policyrcd gets removed, as minifai handles installing its own policy-rc.d.
This is necessary regardless if we want grml-policyrcd or not, and then
grml-policyrcd provides no value anymore.

The variables FAI_ARGS, FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP_OPTS and ZERO_FAI_LOGFILE are no longer
supported. The grml-live parameter -V is now always enabled and the option is
deprecated.

minifai logs to stdout/stderr, and aborts on the first error it encounters. All
log messages now end up in grml-live.log.  These log/data files are no longer
written: debconf.data, fai-monitor.log, fai.conf, fcopy.log, nfsroot.conf,
scripts.log, software.log, status.log, task_error, task_local_error,
variables.log.

Notably missing: packages can only be "install"-ed, which works like
"install-norec" in FAI.  "hold", etc are not implemented at all.

  Log Message:

  minifai: write logs into /grml-live/log/

Somewhat easier to deal with, as grml-live ensures this will not
exist in the packed chroot.
