As discussed in [#335], the `validate_manifest` method checks the manifest's
internal consistency. The validation phase, on the other hand, can be used to
check the consistency of the manifest with external ressources, for instance:
- Checking if files or directories exist.
- Checking if the content of a file is consistent with what was expected.
- Checking if a network ressource (an APT proxy?) is reachable.

well. Add in additional GCE guest package into manifests (init files
were split into their own package to make the python package adhere to
pypi standards).
Only tasks from the loaded provider and plugins were
considered, when creating the task graph.
This was a problem with the prebootstrapped plugin
specifically, which could be used with both ec2 and
vbox.
Fixed the problem by loading all known plugins and
providers and adding them to the taskgraph, nothing
less will do.
The way boot options for linux and config params for grub
were configured gave rise to quite a few bugs.
The configuration has now been abstracted so that
options can be added without interfering with the work
of other tasks (no more sed_i!)
Up until now I didn't see the point of using spaces for indentation.
However, the previous commit (a18bec3) was quite eye opening.
Given that python is an indentation aware language, the amount of
mistakes that went unnoticed because tabs and spaces were used
at the same time (tabs for indentation and spaces for alignment)
were unacceptable.
E101,W191 have been re-enable in the tox flake8 checker and
the documentation has been modified accordingly.
