#10: image_builder doesn't clean up after itself

----------------------------+--------------------------------
In a system where the builders are either disposable VMs or mock chroots
that are destroyed every time, not deleting work files after a build or
before a new build isn't a big deal.
However, the system currently re-uses build environments and there can be
problems with image building when the environment is re-used and not
cleaned. I've seen this most often when the first environment is using a
different kernel version from the current build.
If we end up using disposable virtual machines or switch to using mock,
this can be closed but for the short term, it would be wise to check for
empty work dirs before building and delete them if they aren't empty.
