`banger kernel import <name> --from <dir>` copies a staged kernel
bundle into the local catalog. <dir> is the output of
`make void-kernel` or `make alpine-kernel` (build/manual/void-kernel/
or build/manual/alpine-kernel/).
kernelcat.DiscoverPaths locates artifacts under <dir>:
1. Prefers metadata.json (written by make-void-kernel.sh).
2. Falls back to globbing: boot/vmlinux-* or vmlinuz-* (Alpine
fallback), boot/initramfs-*, lib/modules/<latest>.
The daemon's KernelImport copies kernel + optional initrd via
system.CopyFilePreferClone and modules via system.CopyDirContents
(no-sudo mode — catalog lives under ~/.local/state), computes SHA256
over the kernel, and writes the manifest via kernelcat.WriteLocal.
While wiring this up, fixed a latent bug in system.CopyDirContents:
filepath.Join(sourceDir, ".") silently drops the trailing dot, so
`cp -a source source/contents target/` was copying the whole source
directory (including its basename) instead of just its contents.
Replaced the join with a manual "/." suffix. imagemgr.StageBootArtifacts
(the only existing caller) silently benefits.
scripts/register-void-image.sh and scripts/register-alpine-image.sh
are rewritten to use `banger kernel import … && banger image register
--kernel-ref …` instead of the find-and-pass-paths dance. Preserves
the same user-facing commands and env vars.
Tests cover: metadata.json preference, glob fallback, Alpine vmlinuz
fallback, kernel-missing error, round-trip copy into the catalog, and
the --from required flag.
