Implemented a simple addon mechanism
If asked to do so, mkarchiso simply copies a directory full of addons to the iso root. On boot, after union-mounting /real_root, the archiso hook will look for and source an addon config file. This file is a plain old bash script, which makes it quite flexible. The addon config should be written to take care of any mounting that needs to be done, an example of typical tasks is also included. Signed-off-by: Simo Leone <simo@archlinux.org>
