Check to ensure ischroot exists before ChrootableTarget bind mount

Some systems (such as centos7) do not include /usr/bin/ischroot,
which will cause the bind mount to it in ChrootableTarget to fail.

Adding a check for this ensures that the file exists before
mounting and aborts the mount if it does not.

Bind ischroot->true in ChrootableTarget and --mount-proc in unshare

Some programs that are installed by default in Ubuntu rely on checking
/proc/$pid to determine if certain processes are still alive. Curtin's
current default behavior for "curtin in-target" is to run children
inside a separate PID namespace without also isolating /proc,
meaning checks for /proc/$pid usually wait on the wrong process
entirely. One such example is in any DKMS package, as DKMS checks
/proc/$pid. (I have submitted a similar patch to them to address
this as well: https://github.com/dell/dkms/pull/403).

Adding --mount-proc to unshare --pid args resolves that issue since
/proc is already mounted in util.py. However, it introduces a new
issue with postinstall scripts that rely on ischroot to determine
whether to restart systemd, since ischroot behavior is undefined
in pid namespaces. Bind-mounting /usr/bin/ischroot to /usr/bin/true
resolves this issue and is always correct since the symlink is
added only within ChrootableTargets.

curthooks: nvmeotcp: check if network in initramfs is needed

To decide if we should bring up the network in the initramfs and then
run `nvme connect-all` commands, we now look for mounpoints that have
the `_netdev` option. Those are the ones that require the network to be
up before mounting. If any of those mounpoints corresponds to something
essential for booting (e.g., /, /usr, /var or alike), then we decide
that the network is required in the initramfs.

Add python3-parameterized as a build-depends

The test build of curtin as a .deb package for LTS-es has been failing
recently because python3-parameterized is not in the list of
build-depends.

curtooks/install-grub: workaround the efivarfs statfs kernel regression

On systems affected by the statfs kernel bug for efivarfs, we now export
the LIBEFIVAR_OPS=efivarfs variable to work around the issue. The variable
instructs libefivar (and therefore efibootmgr) to access EFI variables
through /sys/firmware/efi/efivars without leaning on statfs.

tests: fix memory error in integration test when we allocate a 2GiB string

When create=True, the function add_image does something similar to what
'dd if=/dev/zero bs=1 count={size}' would do.

That said, our implementation allocates a string of the requested size
in memory. This fails with MemoryError on systems with limited RAM
available.

Instead, we now call 'dd', which is more memory efficient.

usage: fix help that showed invalid json in examples

The usage showed examples to override the stages that are executed when
running curtin install. That said, JSON only accepts strings surrounded
by double quotes and the examples use single quotes. This leads to
invalid JSON syntax if the examples are copied.

Fixed by inverting the quotes used in the examples so that the examples
are valid.

Make sure curthooks do not discard supplied proxy settings

Just like we witnessed for the APT preferences, the proxy settings are
not honored when Subiquity installs packages from the "packages"
autoinstall section. This also applies for unattended-upgrades.

This happened because the installation of packages and execution of
unattended-upgrades occur after running curthooks.
Curtooks call handle_apt with an almost empty configuration.

Therefore, we would discard the proxy settings by removing the
etc/apt/apt.conf.d/90curtin-aptproxy file.

Fixed by not removing etc/apt/preferences.d/90curtin.pref when the
configuration does not contain APT preferences.
