We want the exitrd image to be built with the latest systemd as well. As the exitrd image is built as part of mkosi.images, and all subimages are built before the main image, this implies the packages must be built as a subimage in mkosi.images/ as well. So we introduce the build image and move all logic related to building distribution packages there. This also has the nice side effect of slimming down the main image as the build dependencies are not installed into the main image anymore. It also makes sure the packages are built in a "clean" chroot without any of the other packages which we install in the main image available.
