Added new multi bootloader helper functions
...
* Added: functions/bootloaders.sh . This file adds bootloader functions that are heavily used in efi scenarios where a bootloader can act as a first or an extra bootloader.
Since the introduction of the new switch:
--bootloaders
you can setup it like this:
--bootloaders=syslinux,grub-efi
.
This means that syslinux is the first bootloader and grub-efi is the extra bootloader.
* Added new bootloader functions: Check_Non_First_Bootloader and Check_Non_Extra_Bootloader.
These functions let each one of the bootloaders abort the build because
they cannot perform a role either as a first bootloader or as an extra bootloader.
* Added bootloader functions: Check_First_Bootloader_Role, Check_Extra_Bootloader_Role and Check_Any_Bootloader_Role
These functions let bootloaders to force their default role in a single line.
At the same time many binary bootloaders were rewritten to make use of the new bootloader role functions explained above.
These roles were enforced:
binary_grub-legacy : First bootloader
binary_grub-pc : Either first or extra bootloader
binary_syslinux : Either first or extra bootloader
If a bootloader is tried to be used in a role that it's not meant to be used then the build fails because that might lead to a non-bootable system.

Multi bootloader support
...
Note: OLDIFS use makes IFS to be reset to "" instead to it being unset.
Either we need to detect if old IFS was unset to unset it
or we need a proper way of setting it as a local variable.
Even more IFS it's not currently used in
Check_package (which it's called from: binary_hdd).
we should have a clean way of resetting/unsetting IFS when calling Check_package.
The other approach it's to explicitly define IFS with its default value in the
places inside live-build code where we implicitly suppose that it's going to have
its default value.

Getting rid of hard-coded release numbers and using /etc/os-release instead ( Closes : #790860 ).

Unfortunately VERSION_ID on testing/unstable is currently not included

Dropping automagics for casper.
...
Future live-build versions will still allow to use casper,
but its configuration will be done differently by hooks
in the config tree, rather than embedded and maintenance intensive
code in live-build itself.

binary_syslinux: correct the path used to check if the bootloader is available.

directories and not /share/{ISO,PXE,EXT,SYS}LINUX/.

Add support for making ext[234] or btrfs hdd images bootable with extlinux ( Closes : #745816 )
...
extlinux configuration for the bootable image is installed to
/boot/extlinux, matching the extlinux-install script in Debian.
From the configuration point of view it's still called "syslinux",
the same as the rest of the syslinux family (pxelinux, isolinux etc.)
