  * Add interactive frontend for installers:
    - Clean up `install_system()` and `installer-pc` output
      + Maybe write everything to an installation log file in `${root}/var/log/`
    - New `lib/tui.sh` interface to `lib/tui/select.sh` and `lib/tui/dialog.sh`
      backends (with `configure` looking for **dialog**)
    - Make `install_system()` accept an output callback to use instead of
      `info()`
    - Add a `prof_get_platforms_by_tag(suite, tag, plat_cb)` function that calls
      `${plat_cb} "${name}" "${desc}"` on each matching platform
      + ProteanOS implementation: download and parse (control file)
        <http://files.proteanos.com/pub/proteanos-archplat-lists/${suite}/plat>
    - Add library functions for a `select` implementation, pretty-printing sizes
      in decimal and binary units, and searching for block devices
    - Implement an interactive mode of `installer-pc`:
      + Change usage to `[-a <arch> -p <plat> [-m <mirror>] <suite> <device>]`
        (i.e. make all arguments optional)
      + Get a `Manifest` of suites from profile, present options to user
      + Call `prof_get_platforms_by_tag()` with a "pc" tag
      + Call a profile function to get architectures (with names and
        descriptions) for a given suite and platform
      + Pass a tui function as the output callback to `install_system()`
