The removal of FileCopierPlugin looks fine.
The image builder writes out all entries from the ResourcePool.
`release` file is already an entry added to ResourcePool and the content
is known when the entry is created. The image builder could just write out `release` file in the same way as all other entries (i.e. with ResourcePoolEntry::contents). A related question is whether we want to keep TOP type going forward. You could either leave the `release` file generation change out, leave it as is, or write the content when the entry is created in ReleaseInfoPlugin (i.e. storeRelease method can also be removed).
