the '.' progress stuff has been left as is. perhaps that should be removed
since its use is inconsistent compared to other scripts?

Closes: #952882
including:
- spaces replaced with tabs for consistency
- alignment of `;;` in some case statements changed for consistency

The binary_onie script works on the host, not in the chroot (if used),
so don't check that the required packages for the script are installed
in the chroot (if present) as they won't be useful.
Check instead on the host.
Instead of hard-coding the decompression and compression formats,
detect them at runtime.
Install the required dependencies as well - they were mistakenly left
out.
Gbp-Dch: Ignore
Open Network Install Environment is an open image format used by
networking vendor to ship a standardised image for networking white
box switches.
ONIE hardware takes this image at boot and a script to chain load
into the final environment via kexec. We can support Debian and
derivatives on such systems by packing an ISO which then gets
unpacked, kexec'ed and live-booted.
A base ONIE system can be tested in QEMU by building a VM following
these instrunctions:
https://github.com/opencomputeproject/onie/blob/master/machine/kvm_x86_64/INSTALL
Once built, boot onie-recovery-x86_64-kvm_x86_64-r0.iso in QEMU/libvirt
and on the console there will be the terminal prompt. Check the IP
assigned by libvirt and then scp the live image (ssh access is enabled
as root without password...). Then the .bin can be booted with:
ONIE-RECOVERY:/ # onie-nos-install /tmp/live.hybrid.iso-ONIE.bin
The implementation is inspired by ONIE's own scripts that can be found
at:
https://github.com/opencomputeproject/onie/blob/master/contrib/debian-iso/cook-bits.sh
A new option, --onie (false by default) can be set to true to enable
building this new format in addition to an ISO.
An additional option, --onie-kernel-cmdline can be used to specify
additional options that the ONIE system should use when kexec'ing the
final image.
Note that only iso or hybrid-iso formats are supported.
