Today we warn but continue on files in /var, which can be very surprising to people. The semantic is the files are missing at runtime. And we spew so much stuff at build time it's easy to miss this.

Let's add an opt-in mode into the treefile like:

error-on-unsupported-paths: true

That makes us actually error out when we find this.

I want to have rpm-ostree use this API, but in order to do so
in a backwards compatible way we need a mode that just warns but
continues.
