SW: add genisoimage to GRML_FULL

Required at least by grml-live-remaster (which is neither very
stable nor beautiful but anyway useful in certain situations, so
make its usage at least as easy as possible).

On the command line/in the logs you'll notice something like
that before the system is becoming unuseable:

let's dpkg-divert the binary during the FAI dirinstall process
through the existing hook script instsoft.GRMLBASE. Then revert
the dpkg-divert via scripts/GRMLBASE/98-clean-chroot before
actually building the ISO again.
