Bernard Cafarelli 87379da56a Run RHEL system unregister element earlier
This does not need to be the last finalise step, and some late finalise
steps can disable the network (for example, Octavia amphora DIB cleans
resolv.conf at 99) Moving it to 60 also aligns it with rhsm-unregister
rhel6 element, and still allows to run subscription-manager steps
before.

Also fix an unbound variable error that appeared when both
BASE_IMAGE_FILE and DIB_CLOUD_IMAGES are unset.

rhel7

Use RHEL 7 cloud images as the baseline for built disk images.

Because RHEL 7 base images are not publicly available, it is necessary to first download the RHEL 7 cloud image from the Red Hat Customer Portal and pass the path to the resulting file to disk-image-create as the DIB_LOCAL_IMAGE environment variable.

The cloud image can be found at (login required): https://access.redhat.com/downloads/content/69/ver=/rhel---7/7.1/x86_64/product-downloads

Then before running the image build, define DIB_LOCAL_IMAGE (replace the file name with the one downloaded, if it differs from the example):: export DIB_LOCAL_IMAGE=rhel-guest-image-7.1-20150224.0.x86_64.qcow2

The downloaded file will then be used as the basis for any subsequent image builds.

For further details about building RHEL 7 images, see the rhel-common and redhat-common element README files.
