Sergio Schvezov (sergiusens) wrote : support for base: none and build-base

none is a base that is essentially empty, agreed to be handled internally by snapd.
To support this at build time, we are introducing the concept of a build-base which is the value of an existing base used to build for (e.g.; core16, core18).

build-base (for now) is only allowed when none is used as a base.
