Instead of mounting ISOs, which requires root, use isoinfo to extract files.
This makes it possible to install a VM from ISOs as non-root.
While working on this, I noticed the recent StringIO change seems to have
broken installing from ISOs. The problem seems to be that _grabber() is also
used for extracting binaries, which io.StringIO doesn't handle.
