A better aproach to local assets

Describe the solution you'd like

  1. The local asset tab should let you download the complete distro, and should know what files are needed. Right now multipart file systems are failing because the asset browser is not showing filesystem.squashfs.part2 files. At least the files could be grouped by the asset name

Other minor thing: The moment you download local assets you think you are caching files, but in order to allow them to work you need to change the value of live_endpoint in the configuration file boot.cfg, but there's nothing in the local browser assets saying anything about it

You can change the live_endpoint value per single asset in the ipxe file. I second this issue, I’d love to see algorithm aware of local copy being available and in case it is missing fetch from network and in case of being outdated ask user what to do.
