features:
- Adds support for streaming raw images directly onto
the disk. This avoids writing the image to a tmpfs
partition before writing it to disk, which also enables
using images larger than the usable amount of RAM on
the machine IPA runs on. Pass `stream_raw_images=True`
to the `prepare_image` command to enable this; it is
disabled by default.
fixes:
- Raw images larger than available of RAM may now be used
by passing `stream_raw_images=True` to the `prepare_image`
command; these will be streamed directly to disk.
