For some use cases, there is no need to include the conary database on the installed system. We could add an option to skip copying the conary database into the installed image. We could even (mostly) separate whether to copy in the modelcache, conarydb/rollbacks, and manifest.

The modelcache is trivially rebuilt; including it makes an initial "conary install" operation faster.

The conarydb can be rebuilt from the manifest with recreatedb or from the system model (more expensively) with --just-db if the manifest is not included.

There is no point in the modelcache without the conarydb so eliminating the conarydb should also eliminate the modelcache.
