The releng syslinux.cfg references UI .c32 modules that may not load,
causing syslinux to fall back without archisolabel= in the kernel cmdline
so the archiso initrd hook scans for an empty device label and sets root=''.
- Write our own minimal syslinux.cfg using %INSTALL_DIR%/%ARCHISO_LABEL%
placeholders; Dockerfile now only copies .c32 binaries from releng
- Add squashfs and overlay to mkinitcpio MODULES explicitly
- Remove microcode hook (no intel-ucode/amd-ucode packages installed)

mkinitcpio runs inside the airootfs chroot, so the archiso hook files
(/usr/lib/initcpio/hooks/archiso) must be installed there. Without this
the hook has no device-scanning logic and boots to an empty root mount.

- Disable pacman alpm sandbox in Dockerfile (seccomp blocks it in BuildKit)
- Move mkarchiso from RUN to CMD so it runs with --privileged at docker run time
- Fix output path: mkarchiso now writes to /dist (matches volume mount)
- Add syslinux + imlib2 to Docker build packages and live ISO package list
- Copy syslinux/ and efiboot/ boot configs from archiso releng into profile
- Switch deprecated UEFI grub bootmodes to uefi-x64.systemd-boot
- Fix wrong package names: libpam→pam, light→brightnessctl, remove pkexec
- Set SigLevel=Never and hardcode reliable mirrors in profile pacman.conf
- Add mkinitcpio.conf with archiso hook so initrd can mount the live squashfs
