Added a session-storag. This is in an attempt to build away some magic functionality that might otherwise be hard to understand/maintain over a long period of time. Using this in profiles/desktop.py as a test.

There are no specific desktop-steps, it simply routes
the installer to whichever desktop environment/window manager was chosen.
Maybe in the future, a network manager or similar things *could* be added here.
We should honor that Arch Linux does not officially endorse a desktop-setup, nor is
it trying to be a turn-key desktop distribution.
There are plenty of desktop-turn-key-solutions based on Arch Linux,
this is therefor just a helper to get started
