03c296cb4f add boot params archisoflags= and cow_flags= for mount options
Having files on btrfs subvolumes requires to give mount options. Add
boot params archisoflags= and cow_flags= for this purpose. Boot
parameters could look like this:

... archisodevice=/dev/sdaX archisoflags=subvolume=isos
cow_device=/dev/sdaX cow_flags=subvolume=persist ...

9322a0d3b7 [archiso] Rename cowfile_size to cow_spacesize=
The name is more relevant since the usage is shared for both
dm-snapshot and overlayfs.

5a8a8c7b10 Reintroduce the possibility to force an architecture
Among other things, 36459f3 ([archiso] Drop aitab support, 2014-06-28)
removed the possibility to manually set a specific architecture by using
kernel parameters. This, however, is useful, e.g. when installing Arch
Linux on a device that reports itself as i586 but works fine with the
i686 flavor.

Always create one filesystem of a fixed size (32G), format (ext4) and
know name "airootfs".

Simplify logic a lot.
