Description-en: create legacy-free OS images
A fancy wrapper around "dnf --installroot", "debootstrap" and
"pacstrap", that may generate disk images with a number of
bells and whistles.
.
Generated images are "legacy-free". This means only GPT disk
labels (and no MBR disk labels) are supported, and only
systemd based images may be generated. Moreover, for bootable
images only EFI systems are supported (not plain MBR/BIOS).
