Commandline Tool to Generate a Netboot Directory Tree

For example,
$ ./ubuntu-server-netboot --url http://releases.ubuntu.com/focal/ubuntu-20.04.2-live-server-amd64.iso
INFO: Downloading http://releases.ubuntu.com/focal/ubuntu-20.04.2-live-server-amd64.iso
INFO: Attempting to download http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/focal-updates/main/uefi/grub2-amd64/current/grubx64.efi.signed
INFO: Netboot generation complete: /tmp/tmpo54145m2/ubuntu-installer
