Uses the ID_LIKE field (when not empty) to look for a fallback OS support module. A warning is displayed when fallback is used.
Added a test using kali linux (debian).
It's worth noting that not all distros have ID_LIKE at all, some have multiple values like
ID_LIKE="fedora rhel"
and for example clearlinux hasID_LIKE=clear-linux-os
(same as ID).
