There is currently no API to set --nobase or --ignoremissing in the %packages section

Issue

When choosing the software to be installed in a kickstart profile, in the web user interface it is possible to configure the following two settings:
- Don't install @Base package group
- Ignore missing packages

which will respectively add --nobase and --ignoremissing to the %packages section in the kickstart file.

There is currently no way of specifying that via API.
