There is no need to mount the filesystem on the host side.
All filesystem tools offer some way to fill the fs without mounting.
So, create the content on the host side, create and fill the fs
without mounting.
No more sudo or guestmount needed.
This new approach works because the tests don't care about user IDs
and no device files are needed.
If user IDs start to matter it's still possible to use wrapper
tools like fakeroot in future while filling the fs.

Without this commit it is only possible to create filesystem images
with a size granularity of 1MB.
This commit adds the option to create file systems with different
sizes, e.g 8.5MB.

These are currently created in the source directory, which is not ideal.
Move them to the persistent-data directory instead. Update the test so
skip validating the filename, since it now includes a full path.

Tidy this up so that pylint is happy. Use hex for the 1MB size and make
sure it is not a floating-point value.
Add a little main program to allow the code to be tried out, since at
present is only called from a long-running test.
