NUC: Use custom image layout
This patch adds a new image class 'image_dd', by default it has an empty boot partition. image_dd_efi extends this class to support Intel NUC board. The layout of a generated image is a prerequisite for OSTree integarion. Image generated by 'hddimg' produces rootfs.img (ext3 filesystem file) and then "live" boots it from initramfs by mounting rootfs.img via loop device. For OTA integration we need to access contents of rootfs.img already from boot loader. The custom 'image_nuc_efi' layout allow for fully atomic updates on EFI based system, by keeping GRUB-EFI binary on a dedicated EFI system partition (ESP). OSTree currently is not fully atomic on EFI systems, but with this setup we use GRUB-BIOS code path in OSTree, which is atomic. After EFI firmware has loaded the GRUB-EFI binary, everything else is done on rootfs parition. One limitation from the above scenario is that you would need to update /EFI/BOOT/bootx64.efi (GRUB-EFI) binary manually. Not sure how common it is to update a boot loader binary on a deployed system, but its not impossible.
