bf39d18edb Add 3 long options for getting information about mkimg itself:
--version	print the version of mkimg and also whether it's
		64- or 32-bit.
--formats	list the supported output formats separated by space.
--schemes	list the supported partitioning schemes separated by
		space.

91c4578a03 Add support for adding empty partition entries. I.e. skip partition
numbers or names. This gives more control over the actual layout and
helps to construct BSD disklabels with /usr or /var at dedicated
partitions.

258955626a Add VHD support to mkimg(1). VHD is used by Xen and Microsoft's Hyper-V
among others.

Add an undocumented option for unit testing (-y). When given, the image
will have UUIDs and timestamps synthesized in a way that gives identical
results across runs. As such, UUIDs stop being unique, globally or
otherwise.

VHD support requested by: gjb@

1e7c9712cd MFuser/marcel/mkimg:
Add support for different output formats:
1.  The output file that was previously written is now called the raw format.
2.  Add the vmdk output format to create VMDK images.

When the format is not given, the raw output format is assumed.

f10e28b41f Add mkimg_write() which combines lseek(2) and write(2) and uses
sector granularity for both offset and length. Have all schemes
use mkimg_write() instead of mkimg_seek() followed by write(2).

Now that schemes don't use lseek(2) nor write(2) directly, it's
easier to support output formats other than raw disks.

b01bad4f56 Add mkimg, a utility for making disk images from raw partition contents.
The partitioning scheme can be one of the schemes supported by gpart.
