Add support for explicitly requesting any specific bootloader type
...with the `sysroot.bootloader` configuration option. This can be useful when converting a system to use `ostree` which doesn't currently have a bootloader configuration that `ostree` can automatically detect, and is also useful in combination with the `--sysroot` option when provisioning a rootfs for systems other than the one you're running `ostree admin deploy` on.
