We recently changed how we manage chroots, requiring the user (of the
chroot) to initialize it before doing stuff like installing packages.
There are however still certain edgecases in pmbootstrap where this
doesn't get done (for example qemu/run.py would attempt to install the
kernel package for the device, but we don't initialize the rootfs chroot
in QEMU since that doesn't make sense to do). Check for and catch this
situation explicitly so we don't ruin someones day, but still be loud
about it so we can hopefully catch the remaining instances of this.

Add a new flag --image which can be used to mount the rootfs generated
with "pmbootstrap install".
For now this is quite limited in scope. But it's enough to allow for
building a package, updating it in the QEMU image, and then booting it.
The major "gotcha" with this is that the QEMU uses the kernel and
initramfs from the device chroot unless you run it with --efi.

Generalise pmb.helpers.other.cache with a more python decorator.
The Cache decorator takes a list of function arguments to use as cache
keys, keyword args can be used to restrict caching so that it is skipped
entirely unless the attribute has a specific value.
For example, pmb.helpers.pmaports.get() has the decorator:
@Cache("pkgname", subpackages=True)
This means the return value will be cached only when subpackages is
True, otherwise it will always miss.

Move pmb/parse/arch.py over to core and refactor it as an Arch type,
similar to how Chroot was done. Fix all the uses (that I can find) of
arch in the codebase that need adjusting.
The new Arch type is an Enum, making it clear what architectures can be
represented and making it much easier to reason about. Since we support
~5 (kinda) different representations of an Architecture (Alpine, Kernel,
target triple, platform, and QEMU), we now formalise that the Alpine
format is what we represent internally, with methods to convert to any
of the others as-needed.

Cease merging pmbootstrap.cfg into args, implement a Context type to let
us pull globals out of thin air (as an intermediate workaround) and rip
args out of a lot of the codebase.
This is just a first pass, after this we can split all the state that
leaked over into Context into types with narrower scopes (like a
BuildContext(), etc).

With the new chroot type, we can now write fancy paths in the pythonic
way. Convert most of the codebase over, as well as adding various other
type hints.

Introduce a new module: pmb.core to contain explicitly typed pmbootstrap
API. The first component being Suffix and SuffixType. This explicitly
defines what suffixes are possible, future changes should aim to further
constrain this API (e.g. by validating against available device
codenames or architectures for buildroot suffixes).
Additionally, migrate the entire codebase over to using pathlib.Path.
This is a relatively new part of the Python standard library that uses a
more object oriented model for path handling. It also uses strong type
hinting and has other features that make it much cleaner and easier to
work with than pure f-strings. The Chroot class overloads the "/"
operator the same way the Path object does, allowing one to write paths
relative to a given chroot as:
builddir = chroot / "home/pmos/build"
The Chroot class also has a string representation ("native", or
"rootfs_valve-jupiter"), and a .path property for directly accessing the
absolute path (as a Path object).
The general idea here is to encapsulate common patterns into type hinted
code, and gradually reduce the amount of assumptions made around the
codebase so that future changes are easier to implement.
As the chroot suffixes are now part of the Chroot class, we also
implement validation for them, this encodes the rules on suffix naming
and will cause a runtime exception if a suffix doesn't follow the rules.
