The scripts used to scrape the various repositories to build
and push package for all foreign kernels. They were designed
to be run periodically and provide "official" foreign kernel
packages. Needless to say we did not run them periodically
and the linuxkit packages became out-dated quickly.
Now, we just provide users who are interested in using foreign
kernels the means to build their own package from specific
vendor kernels.
Each script uses slightly different command line arguments
as the location and naming of the kernel packages differ
wildly. The help message provide a working example which
has been tested with a minimal LinuxKit YAML file.

Remove the image and the intermediate images. Otherwise, especially
for the initial runs, the disk fills up quickly.

Doing a "docker pull" to check if an image exist on hub
takes a long time for the number of images, in particular
in the linuxkit/kernel-mainline repo.
Instead, get a list of tags on Hub and check that way. This
does not check if the image was signed, but should be good
enough.

The Ubuntu mainline PPA has kernel.org based kernels for many
kernel releaseis. This commit adds suport for downloading and
converting the 3.16.x long long term support kernel as well
as the current 4.x series. The "mainline.sh" script only
downloads/processes kernels which have not yet been put on
Hub.
The kernels are stored under "linuxkit/kernel-mainline" and are
tagged with the kernel version.
