Jianxun Zhang 4c9b1a472f wic: clone gummiboot wks for systemd-boot

This wks is just a copy of gummiboot wks with bootloader
changed to systemd-boot. A very basic boot test on a X86
target is done with a direct-boot image generated by:

wic create mksystemd-bootdisk -e core-image-minimal

Because we plan to replace gummiboot with systemd-boot at any
time in the future, we summarize history (as much as I can) of
the current gummiboot wks before it's gone:

    wic: get rid of scripts/lib/image

    Moved content of scripts/lib/image/ to scripts/lib/wic as
    one directory with the same name as a tool is self-explanatory
    and less confusing than two.

    wic: use ext4 in canned .wks files

    Latest kernel doesn't have ext3 compiled in. Wic images produced
    from canned .wks can't boot because of that. Switching to ext4
    fixes this issue.

    wic: Add mkgummidisk kickstart file

    This is the same as mkefidisk but uses gummiboot instead of grub-efi.

README

Poky
====

Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged
build system and development environment. It features support for building
customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images
featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports
cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a
standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.

Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports
is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added
in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.

As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as 
BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information 
e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.

The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a 
reference manual which can be found at:
    http://yoctoproject.org/documentation

OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions
of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with
DISTRO = "nodistro") and contains only emulated machine support.

For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website:
    http://www.openembedded.org/

Where to Send Patches
=====================

As Poky is an integration repository (built using a tool called combo-layer),
patches against the various components should be sent to their respective
upstreams:

bitbake:
    Git repository: http://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/
    Mailing list: bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org

documentation:
    Git repository: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/yocto-docs/
    Mailing list: yocto@yoctoproject.org

meta-poky, meta-yocto-bsp:
    Git repository: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-yocto(-bsp)
    Mailing list: poky@yoctoproject.org

Everything else should be sent to the OpenEmbedded Core mailing list.  If in
doubt, check the oe-core git repository for the content you intend to modify.
Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current oe-core git
repository.

    Git repository: http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/
    Mailing list: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org

Note: The scripts directory should be treated with extra care as it is a mix of
oe-core and poky-specific files.
