Lyndon Brown 8b109ffb96 config: rename --architectures to --architecture
this has only ever supported specifying a single arch, thus was confusing
being plural

jnqnfe fcafaede19 simplify --debian-installer choices
`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`.

Lyndon Brown 28d2e88ba8 manpage: separate first and secondary build commands
`lb build` is a top level command and the one most users will want. listing
the secondary component build stages alongside it just confuses things.

here we clarify things by moving the second-level build stages to a
separate list.

Raphaël Hertzog 44b9b0a650 Support --distribution-binary and --distribution-chroot
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.
