Don't try to install kali-linux-light in the light variant
...
The package has no purpose and will be dropped. Light is just
a simple desktop with kali-linux-core and no tools.

Make installer images really separate and change default installer image
...
The default installer image now includes the packages for all the
options available in tasksel during initial installation, so all
the kali-linux-* except kali-linux-everything and most of the
kali-desktop-*.

Switch back installer to live one
...
The netinst installer is causing too many issues for unexperienced
users that are installing without enabling the network. They are ending
up in a console and are stuck there. See https://bugs.kali.org/view.php?id=6053
and the many duplicates.
The live installer is not offering close control on what metapackage
gets installed but at least you are sure to have a usable system at the
end.

Fix installer image to cope with default 686-pae kernel that we use on i386
...
Debian defaults to linux-image-686 for i386 on all levels (simple-cdd,
debian-cd, debian-installer). Kali modified debian-installer to use
linux-image-686-pae in debian-installer (for the benefit of the live
image mainly!). We have to adjust simple-cdd (by way of the
kernel_packages configuration item) and debian-cd (with some live
patching of a copy).

Make some important .deb available for the installer
...
The lack of "locales" resulted in a non-configured locales on initial
installation. The lack of eject means the ISO is never ejected at the
end of the installation. The lack of pciutils/usbutils likely has other
bad consequences.

Build a "cdrom" installer and not a "netboot" one
...
In the live-build code, netinst and netboot have the same meaning,
and it means netboot, an installer that fetches the d-i udebs over
the network. But we don't want that, we want the udeb to be available
in the ISO so that it keeps working even after a kernel update in
kali-rolling.
