In Lorax 36.3 I have fixed a number of `mkksiso` bugs reported by Zdenek Veleba
(thanks!), it now allows filenames up to 253 characters, and will
return an error if any of them are longer than that. Return codes are now working,
so you can check for errors in scripts, and there was a bunch of cleanup of support
for the other arches.

`mkksiso` is used to take a boot.iso and add a kickstart to it, creating an iso that
will be automatically installed when it is booted. You can optionally add new directories
to the iso and reference them from the kickstart like this:

repo --name=extra-repo --baseurl=file:///run/install/repo/extra-repo/
