When using the kas menu command, we need to track the repository
location outside of the kas container as well. This is required to
prepare the environment for a later kas-container build, as the repo
path inside the container is different from the outside one. For that,
the location of KAS_REPO_DIR is passed via an env-var into the container.
There, this value is picked up by the menu plugin and written to the
.config.yaml file as `_source_host_dir`. When running kas-container build,
we check if the .config.yaml file contains this node and set the
KAS_REPO_DIR accordingly. The schema is extended accordingly.

This patch adds a new top-level schema node `_source_dir` which is used
to track the top repo dir on auto-generated kas files. This node is
generated by the kas menu plugin and provides the absolute path to the
top repo dir at time of invoking the plugin. When later calling any other
kas operation that performs a checkout, this node is evaluated and the
top repo dir is set accordingly. This tracking is required when the
build command is executed from another dir than the top repo dir, as the
repo-dir cannot be computed by kas in this case (the .config.yaml file
is in the KAS_WORK_DIR, not in the repo dir).

This patch adds the KasUserError exception class to distinguish between
internal kas exceptions and user or configuration errors. Exceptions
previously raised on user errors are ported over by deriving
KasUserError. In case of user errors, only the exception message is
shown, but no stacktrace. This makes it easier for users to locate the
issue as the reason is now stated in the last line of the output.
Kas internal exceptions are not subject to this change to help the

This patch adds the top-level `overrides` entry, which is used to
override (or pin) the refspec of repositories. The main difference to a
direct override is that this logic only applies to repos that are
already defined. By that, a superset of all repos can be added to this
entry (similar to a global lockfile), but only the currently active ones
are affected. A new top-level keyword is required because everything
below the "repos" keyword is potentially defined by "default" values.
For the locking mechanism, a clear separation between overrides (only
override if existing) and definitions is required to be able to define a
global lockfile with all possible repos, while just defining some repos.

This patch reworks the logic when setting KAS_REPO_REF_DIR.
When this variable is set, a two-staged clone is used:
First, a bare-clone (or similar) is created in the ref-dir, according to
the naming scheme. This clone is executed in a way that is both
reentrant as well as race-free across multiple instances of KAS working
on the same dir. Internally we clone into a tmpdir below the refdir and
rename on success to guarantee the atomicity of the operation on POSIX
compliant filesystems.
Second, the clone in the KAS_WORK_DIR is executed against the local
copy. After that, the origin url is redirected to the upstream url.
By that, the KAS_REPO_REF_DIR directory can be cached across builds
which significantly speedsup clone times against large repos.
In case the requested refspec is already in the cache (very likely in CI
builds), no direct access to the upstream repo is required. This logic
is crucial for CI systems in China, where e.g. access to github is
blocked from time to time.
The clone-from-local logic is currently only implemented for the git plugin
as HG misses the caching logic. Repo implementations that do not support this
logic can simply opt-out for the first stage by returning 'true'.
The existing user-facing logic of KAS_REPO_REF_DIR is not affected.
However, internally we no longer clone via --reference as this still
requires access to the remote repo, even if the requested commit is
already in the local copy.

This patch adds a new plugin 'dump' which resolves all kas config
includes and combines them in a single file. The format of the output
file can either be JSON or YAML. In case of YAML, the generated config
fulfills the kas-config schema and can be used as input to kas again.
In addition, the generated files can be used by external tools to
analyse the dependencies and versions of the project.
While the generated configuration is semantically identical to the
input config, we do not guarantee binary compatibility as especially
YAML provides multiple ways to serialize strings and null values.
Not giving this guarantee makes it easier to evolve and maintain the plugin.
The plugin itself extends the checkout plugin, as referenced repos have
to be checked-out first to resolve cross-repo references. This also
requires, that the declared refspec of all referenced repos can actually
be found and checked out.

Make "null" an allowed type for the `url` and `path` properties of a
repository. This allows "deleting" them in an override kas-file to e.g.
point a repository at a local directory instead of a git remote:
"Original" file:
repos:
meta-foo:
url: https://example.org/foo.git
refspec: badc0ffee
Override:
repos:
meta-foo:
url:
path: /path/to/local/foo
Without the explicit "nulling" of the URL, kas would start messing with
the repo in /path/to/local/foo (changing remote URL, switching to a
different rev, etc.). With this change, we can instead force kas to use
the recipes in that directory untouched.

This uses the kconfiglib python module to implement simple interactive
configuration for complex layers with many kas options and even variable
input. See the menu.py documentation header for details on the Kconfig
format and its translation to kas.
Rather than using the limited menuconfig implementation of kconfiglib,
this comes with an own, python-newt based version. The permits smooth
integration in the workflow, e.g. to offer an option that directly
triggers a build after completing a configuration. And it comes with a
nicer layout.
Unfortunately, python-newt can't be fulfilled via pip. But it is
available as proper package via common distros. So warn if the package
