This may not be correct in all use cases but for the files that are currently created,
they should be owned by root. At a minimum they should not have the UID of the user
invoking mender-convert.

This adds more accurate descriptions of what error actually occured during
script execution, as compared to previously, where it would silently fail, and
it could be hard to figure out exactly where the error occured.
Now, upon an error, the script will always output these lines (or similar) at the end:
```bash
2020-04-23 18:53:34 [ERROR] [mender-convert] mender-convert failed
2020-04-23 18:53:34 [DEBUG] [mender-convert-extract] When running: (./mender-convert-extract:109): run_and_log_cmd():
dd if=/dev/zer of=work/boot-generated.vfat count=40 bs=1M status=none
dd: failed to open '/dev/zer': No such file or directory
2020-04-23 18:53:34 [ERROR] [mender-convert] mender-convert exit code: 1
```
Which is a description of which part of the program failed. What the exit code
was, and the last command entry in the debug log, and if any, the collected
output from the command is printed.

Setup for converting ubuntu 18.04 (test device was used Intel NUC)
with 128G SSD.

With GPT there should be a backup partition table at the end of the disk. Before this change, mender-convert-package creates the output image file, writes the partition table, and when it writes the first partition data the file is truncated and the backup partition table is gone.
This change should not cause any worse performance, it leaves the backup partition table when using GPT partition scheme, and makes troubleshooting easier when looking at the partition table of the output diskimage.
Also worth noting, if the output diskimage is written to a disk that is larger than the diskimage, the backup partition table will end up in the wrong place. This can be fixed by running 'sgdisk -e <device>'. The device will still boot without the backup partition table, but it would be good to either document this or make it automatic as part of any "first boot" disk/partition operations.

Partition scheme can be forced by setting MENDER_PARTITION_SCHEME="gpt" or MENDER_PARTITION_SCHEME="dos", otherwise it will use the scheme from the input image.

The publishing variables have no prefix, and the tmp storage ones have
a TMP_STORAGE prefix, so adapt to that.

This extends the current functionality of the platform_ function
functionality into using hooks, so that each modification step can be called
from multiple configuration files.
The valid hooks are:
* PLATFORM_MODIFY_HOOKS
* PLATFORM_PACKAGE_HOOKS
* USER_LOCAL_MODIFY_HOOKS
and can be appended to as a regular bash array.

This adds color to the warning, error, and fatal log messages, by changing the
colour codes in the terminal for the error level in the log message. This way
warning and errors stick out more from the regular messages, and helps identify
errors.

This image is old enough to have a U-Boot version from before the boot
problems in MEN-2404 were introduced (>= v2018.09). At the time of
writing, no image has been released which has a U-Boot from after the
problem was fixed (> v2019.07), but we expect it will eventually be
released, and then we can bump to that version.
