subscription-manager has a daemon that runs in a confined domain,
and it doesn't have permission to write usr_t, which is the default
label of /ostree/deploy/$osname/deploy.
A better long term fix is probably to move the origin file into the
deployment root as /etc/ostree/origin.conf or so.
In the meantime, let's ensure the .origin files are labeled as
configuration.
We need basic support for UEFI - many newer servers don't support
BIOS compatibility mode anymore.
However, this patch only implements non-atomic because UEFI is FAT, and
we can't do the previous design for OSTree of atomic swap of
/boot/loader.
The Fedora/RHEL UEFI layout has the kernels on a "real" /boot
partition, and /boot/efi/EFI/$vendor just holds the grub2 UEFI binary
and grub.cfg.
Following this, /boot/loader is still on the OS boot partition, and we
still atomically swap it. This potentially paves the way to atomic
upgrades in the future.

The "ordered hash" code was really just for kernel arguments. And it
turns out it needs to be a multihash (for e.g. multiple console=
arguments).
So turn the OstreeOrderedHash into OstreeKernelArgs, and move the bits
to split key=value and such into there.
Now we're not making this public API yet - the public OstreeSysroot
just takes char **kargs. To facilitate code reuse between ostree/ and
libostree/, make it a noinst libtool library. It'll be duplicated in
the binary and library, but that's OK for now. We can investigate
making OstreeKernelArgs public later.

This commit changes the sysroot API so that one can create arbitrary
new deployment checkouts, then commit them as one step. This is to
enable things like an automatic bisection tool which say create 50
deployments at once, then when done clean them up.
This also moves some printfs from the library into src/ostree.
Now that we have a real GObject for the sysroot, we have a convenient
place to keep track of 4 pieces of state:
* The current deployment list
* The current bootversion
* The current subbootversion
* The current booted deployment (if any)
Avoid requiring callers to pass all of this around and load it
piecemeal; instead the new thing is ostree_sysroot_load().
