Mark Goddard aa6c1d01a9 Decode string to bytes in dracut-regenerate 
In python3, the standard out data returned by
subprocess.Popen.communicate() will in most cases be bytes rather than a
string and must therefore be decoded.

Without this fix we hit the following error:

TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str'

dracut-regenerate

Adds the possibility of regenerating dracut on image build time, giving the possibility to load extra modules. It relies on the DIB_DRACUT_ENABLED_MODULES setting, that will accept a yaml blob with the following format:

- name: <module1>
  packages:
    - <package1>
    - <package2>
- name: <module2>
  packages:
    - <package3>
    - <package4>

By default, this element will bring lvm and crypt modules.
