add --sysroot option
--root is not sufficient to properly operate on a mounted guest system. Using --root still uses the host system's configuration and there is no way to correctly use the guest configuration without manually modifying any Include directives. --sysroot provides an easier way to operate on a guest system by chrooting immediately after option parsing before configuration parsing or performing any operations. It is currently limited to the root user, but that's enough for restoring a guest system to a working state, which is the primary intended use case.
