When using the git version of debootstrap (because no usable version
of debootstrap was installed on the host), we need to run 'make' so
that devices.tar.gz gets built. Otherwise the first debootstrap stage
will fail without printing any error message.

debootstrap prior to 1.0.67 generated an empty sources.list during
foreign bootstraps (Debian#732255 [1]). Fall back to the git checkout
if the installed debootstrap version is too old.

The debian-bootstrap image doesn't choose a default architecture and
distribution version, instead the user has to set both DEB_ARCH and
DEB_TYPE in the environment. Print a reasonably helpful message if
either of them isn't set instead of complaining about "qemu-" being
missing or erroring out because we cannot cd to the mirror URL.

Send error messages where they belong so they're seen even if stdout
is redirected to /dev/null.

Together with the debian-bootstrap.pre script can now build an arbitrary
architecture of Debian using debootstrap. This allows debootstrap to set
up its first stage before the container is built.

To build a container you need a command line like:

  DEB_ARCH=armhf DEB_TYPE=testing \
    ./tests/docker/docker.py build \
    --include-executable=arm-linux-user/qemu-arm debian:armhf \
    ./tests/docker/dockerfiles/debian-bootstrap.docker

Although a number of non-debian systems package the debootstrap script
it is fairly portable in itself. Assuming we have some sort of fakeroot
implementation we can just clone the upstream repository and use the
script from there.
