Ben Nemec dde3d24213 Allow custom rootfs labels 
Per [1], our current root label of cloudimg-root does not work with
XFS because XFS only allows 12 character labels.  This change
addresses that by allowing a custom rootfs label to be specified
in the call to disk-image-create.  There should be no backwards
compatibility concerns as the default label is unchanged.  Any
external elements dealing with the label would need to be updated
to support this new feature, but should continue to work as before
as long as a custom label is not specified.

README.md

Sets up a partitioned disk (rather than building just one filesystem with no partition table).

By default the disk will have grub[2]-install run on it. In case GRUB2 is not available in the system, a fallback to Extlinux will happen. It's also possible to enforce the use of Extlinux by exporting a DIB_EXTLINUX variable to the environment.
