When using tmpfs, it is possible that parts of it end up getting put in swap space (only if there is one).
This may not be desired, so use ramfs instead.
When booting the ISO, you can observe a message that systemd-gpt-auto-generator has failed:
systemd-gpt-auto-generator[197]: Reading EFI variable /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/LoaderDevicePartUUID-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f.
systemd-gpt-auto-generator[197]: open("/sys/firmware/efi/efivars/LoaderDevicePartUUID-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f") failed: No such file or directory
systemd-gpt-auto-generator[197]: EFI loader partition unknown, exiting.
systemd-gpt-auto-generator[197]: (The boot loader did not set EFI variable LoaderDevicePartUUID.)
systemd-gpt-auto-generator[197]: Failed to open device: No such device
Seeing as it started to appear relatively recently, it may be a systemd bug.
Since we do not want any GPT partition automounting in the live environment anyway, systemd-gpt-auto-generator can simply be disabled.
Fixes#164.
The curl --retry-connrefused option is used with not instead of the --retry <num> option to add an extra type of failure to retry on, without --retry <num> it does not retry at all even on a connection refused.

Implements #118.
configs/releng/airootfs/etc/xdg/reflector/reflector.conf:
Reduce the amount mirrors that reflector checks from 70 to 20.
This significantly reduces the time it takes to end up with an up-to-date mirrorlist during boot with the releng
profile.
Fixes#92
configs/releng/airootfs/root/.automated_script.sh:
Add the `--location` curl parameter (see `man 1 curl`) to allow for curl to retrieve a remote script even if the source
is being redirected (e.g. moved permanently) when using the `script=` kernel commandline parameter.
Fixes#113
After pacman-mirrorlist is installed, /etc/pacman.d/hooks/uncomment-mirrors.hook will run a sed command which uncomments all Server lines in /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.
This brings us another step closer to the complete removal of customize_airootfs.sh.

configs/releng/airootfs/usr/local/bin/livecd-sound:
Replace oldstyle expr with a bash test in `is_numeric()`.
Replace use of `nword()` with call to `wc -w`.
Quote variables in `pick_a_card()`.
Fixes#78
configs/releng/airootfs/etc/systemd/system/reflector.service:
Use the 70 mirrors synced most recently (--latest) instead of a specific time since last sync (--age).
According to FS#67399 using 1hour as sync age is too short, as it sometimes leads to empty list.
configs/releng/airootfs/etc/fstab:
/etc/fstab shipped by the filesystem package has only comments. There is no reason to replace it with an empty file.
configs/releng/airootfs/etc/systemd/system/default.target:
There is no harm in booting to graphical.target. releng does not enable (or even install) any service that has {Required,Wanted}By=graphical.target.
