In mkosi, we can't use kernel-install directly but we do want to mimick its behavior as much as possible. Let's make that easier by making it easy to fetch data from kernel-install as JSON. To get all the necessary data, we extend the inspect verb to also allow passing in a kernel version and initrds, to mimick the "add" verb. The kernel version is used to determine the "Entry Directory", and in absence of auto-detection of kernel version in kernel-install we have to allow users to pass it. We also add --no-pager while we're at it.
