wic: Add --embed-rootfs argument
This option adds the content of a rootfs on a specific location on the
rootfs.
It is very useful for making a partition that contains the rootfs for a
host and a target Eg:
/ -> Roofs for the host
/export/ -> Rootfs for the target (which will netboot)
Although today we support making a partition for "/export" this might
not be compatible with some upgrade systems, or we might be limited by
the number of partitions.
With this patch we can use something like:
part / --source rootfs --embed-rootfs target-image /export --embed-rootfs target-image2 /export2
on the .wks file.
