Charalampos Kominos 7e1bb74831 feat: Add new autoupdates element
This patch proposes a new element which creates a mechanism for the
image to have automatic updates enabled from the first boot. A custom
config file, is expected during build time, which is injected into
the image.

A new element ``autoupdates`` is added to DIB. This element, with proper
configuration, will enable and configure cloud images to have a system that
automatically updates the image, from the upstream binaries. To this end,
``DIB_DEB_UPDATES_CONF`` or ``DIB_YUM_UPDATES_CONF`` must be set during build time.

The ``autoupdates`` element has only been tested in Rocky and Ubuntu images.
In addition, the element does not check the validity of the configuration files in any way.
