The indices directory is no longer required on the mirror

Debian-cd no longer uses the override files, so the indices directory
is no longer required.

Add a Xen variant on i386 and amd64

Patch from Ian Campbell.

i386 Xen guests require a PAE (686-bigmem) kernel in order to
run. Therefore this variant includes the relevant installer kernel and
ramdisk in install.386/xen as well as suitable kernel udebs and proper
debs for the installed system.

amd64 Xen has no similar requirement but we include the kernels under
install.amd/xen in order to have a consistent path under both
architectures.

Add support for producing disks with (optional) extra variants

This patch from Ian Cambell adds the generic support code:
   * CONF.sh:		Add $(VARIANTS) configuration variable.
   * eash-build.sh:	Add command line parameter to enable variants.
   * Makefile:		Define VARIANT_xxx when preprocessing package list.
   * boot/?/common.sh:	Add a function for checking if a variant is enabled.
   * generate_di_list: 	Allow variant overrides in udeb exclusion list.

Variant support is documented in docs/README.variants

The intention is to use this support to add support for installing a
Xen guest from an ISO image.

The approach to use varriants was originally suggested by Frans Pop.
