Calamares modules directory

Calamares modules are plugins that implement the Calamares module API and can provide features like installer pages, batch jobs, etc.

Calamares modules are plugins that provide features like installer pages, batch jobs, etc. Each Calamares module lives in its own directory.

### Qt plugin viewmodules
|
||||
|
||||
Currently the only way to write a module which exposes one or more installer pages (viewmodule) is through a Qt plugin. Viewmodules should implement `Calamares::ViewStep`. They can also implement `Calamares::Job` to provide jobs.
|
||||
|
||||
To add a Qt plugin module, put it in a subdirectory and make sure it has a `module.conf` and a CMakeLists.txt with a `calamares_add_plugin` call. It will be picked up automatically by our CMake magic.

### Python and process jobmodules
|
||||
|
||||
Batch jobs for Calamares can be written as Python scripts or as generic commands (shell scripts, external programs, etc.). To add a Python or process jobmodule, put it in a subdirectory and make sure it has a `module.conf`. It will be picked up automatically by our CMake magic. CMakeLists.txt is not used for Python and process jobmodules.
