f777cbdadb image-builder: makeExt4: implements minimal resizing
The algorithms inside `make_ext4fs` can be followed, but it ends up
being a bit complex. I did not figure out all variables, but the amount
of them made me reluctant to implement it as a complte formula.

Instead, I looked at the actual usable space using `df` and mapped it in
a spreadsheet. With the knowledge from actively looking at the source
code, and other data, it is known that the lookup table will work, while
not be ideal.

The fudge factor starting at 256MiB is about stable, but there is a
slight downward deviation at 512MiB, which is why 512MiB was used. The
downward deviation was not observed in other values.

Here's the table as computed.

```
MIB	Fudge
5	0.84609375
8	0.5419921875
16	0.288818359375

128	0.067291259765625
256	0.0518646240234375
512	0.05208587646484375

The difference from .52% to .37% is negligible for 0.5 vs. 4 GiB is
annoying me. The lookup table could be changed to include all known
values instead, I guess.

bb095d2f14 image-builder: makeExt4: implements blockSize
The value chosen is the current default from make_ext4fs.

This makes the current tests still valid.

32c93bb9a7 image-builder: Freeze time with faketime
Otherwise, even on simple images, zero-crossing to the next second caused
impurities in the build.

33c2ecdeae image-builder: Refactors the test mode...
Using an override is more likely to pass the smell test than a magic
environment variable.
