Bug description:
  [Impact]

  For the use of ubuntu-image classic image generation, it is required
  that livecd-rootfs supports a way to only generate the rootfs tree for
  a selected set of arguments (project, architecture etc.). By design
  ubuntu-image will use livecd-rootfs for preparation of the rootfs
  contents and then continue with building the image. Since ubuntu-image
  is backported feature-complete into artful, zesty and xenial, we would
  need the same change to be propagated to those stable series.

  [Test Case]

   * Install livecd-rootfs from -proposed
   * Create a temporary directory, cd into it
   * cp -a `dpkg -L livecd-rootfs | grep "auto$"` .
   * PROJECT="ubuntu-cpc" ARCH=amd64 IMAGEFORMAT=none SUITE=<SERIES> lb config
   * PROJECT="ubuntu-cpc" ARCH=amd64 IMAGEFORMAT=none SUITE=<SERIES> lb build
   * Make sure the build succeeds and that the current directory will have a chroot/ with the build rootfs contents

  [Regression Potential]

  The proposed change should be self-contained and not affecting any
  other code paths, but in the case of a very unlikely situation regular
  image builds could be broken by binary hooks not being executed.
