bootstrap: Add testing Dockerfile to bootstrap
Added Dockerfile which sets up a simple archlinux test environment for
the dotfiles/bootstrap process/playing around.

Will simply build a simple archlinux machine with a single user.

bootstrap module

The bootstrapping module mainly concerns the setup of the repository itself -- installation of packages, setting up basic options and maintenance scripts.

  • installs general list of packages, listed here
  • if githooks are enabled (either through install script, or manually) will compare installed packages with those on the package list on each commit and warn user about differences
  • contains a simple alias dotlink which allows quickly re-linking dotfiles when they have been changed. This is useful to invoke when files have been removed or added and need to be sym-linked by stow again (only works for ~/.dotfiles dot directory)
  • contains an update_package_list.sh script which I can use to quickly repopulate the list of explicitly installed packages, noting down their source (repositories or AUR) and retaining their target, if I set any (only works for ~/.dotfiles dot directory)
