The most portable way to specifiy a root device in a disk image that we
create is to use PARTUUID rather than /dev/sda2. As background, both
GPT and MBR tables provide valid UUID values for each partition and the
Linux Kernel contains the logic to parse this value. With this change
we can now boot the default disk images when used as any valid block
device that the included kernel uses. This for example means that
VirtualBox can be used to run vmdk without changes as it uses IDE for
the virtual disk controller.

Added 3 new targets to directdisk-bootloader-config.cfg to
match hddimg syslinux config.
This is a preparation for dropping hddimg in favor of wic.

Add new wks file as a example for a custom bootloader configuration.
This change also includes the configuration that file that will be
used.
This example is using syslinux with MBR, the configuration file is
almost the same as the one generated by wic. As stated before this
is just an example.
