Switch away from vmdebootstrap

Feature: https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/use-cases/issues/19

No urgency here, just since this came up a couple of time. vmdeboostrap is unmaintained upstream which isn't a big issue since we could pick it up but since there are alternatives we might also pick something more featureful. Candidates are

  • fai (used for e.g. debian's cloud images, robust, has classes for different image types)
  • vmdb2 (same upstream as vmdeboostrap so it might get dropped again)
  • debos - looks well maintained
  • debspawn PureOS uses Debspawn to build images which are then used in reproducible testing.
