`false` and `none` make no sense as choices for this option. Here we
replace `false` with `none`, and remove `true`.
Note that `true` was treated as an alias for netinst (see the changes to
source_disk and and binary_disk).
For backwards compatibility we still allow `true` and `false` by converting
them to `netinst` and `none` respectively, whilst printing a warning to
encourage users to move to `netinst`/`none`.

apt-ftparchive is not able to differentiate between .deb and .udeb so
we have to install them in different pool directories so that we can
regenerate the Packages files without having the .udeb show up
unexpectedly.
Since binary_package-lists can overwrite the Packages files generated
in installer_debian-installer we have to ensure that it also updates
the Release file created formerly.
Ideally we should find a way to avoid the duplication of this logic.
Gbp-Dch: Full
This makes it possible to build an image against a first distribution
(--distribution-chroot) and have the resulting image point to another
distribution (--distribution-binary). We can use this to build against a
snapshot and have the result use the original distribution that was
snapshotted.

Future live-build versions will still allow to use casper,
but its configuration will be done differently by a custom
config tree, rather than embedded and maintenance intensive
code in live-build itself.
Otherwise users opting for XFS and JFS filesystems and installing without
network won't have them and the (first) boot can be interrupted due to
this.
