Disks can be referred to via symlink aliases, such as the ones in
/dev/disk/by-id and /dev/disk/by-path. These alias paths can have
different partition naming behavior than the un-aliased path. For
example, both of the above aliases add -partX to the name for partition
X, rather than just X. Previously this would cause growpart to fail
with the error:

    failed to get start and end for ${dpart} in ${DISK}

Because the awk expression would not match the partition path. This
commit fixes the error by resolving symlink device paths before use.

mount-image-callback: Drop support for mounting lxd containers.

The 'lxd:' support in mount-image-callback only worked in some cases,
and then stopped working in all cases with lxc 2.17.

This drops the lxd support, but leaves in the 'mchroot' support which
came with it.

mount-image-callback: run blockdev and udevadm settle on nbd devices.

When we connect nbd devices, ensure that the kernel re-reads the partition
table information. This ensures that the partition devices (nbd0p1, nbd0p2)
are correct when used later.

Also required then is a udevadm settle.

On xenial, the blockdev is needed, on newer releases some udev magic or
systemd handles it.

tools/make-dist-tarball: do not include .bzr in upstream tarball

using tar cf file.tar.gz directory/ --exclude directory/.bzr
was not correctly excluding .bzr.

the --exclude needs to be before 'directory/'.

It is is just as easy and more straight forward to just remove the .bzr
dir in our pristine directory.
