Commit Message

From: Quirin Gylstorff <quirin.gylstorff@siemens.com>

This allows the user to generate multible overlays in a given
location.

The configuration used the following variables:
 - INITRAMFS_OVERLAY_STORAGE_PARTITION_LABEL: Label of the partition to store the overlays
 - INITRAMFS_OVERLAY_PATHS: space separated list of overlay directories (lower overlay directories)
 - INITRAMFS_OVERLAY_STORAGE_PATH: path on the storage partition where the upper directory is stored

The script tries to mount the top directory of INITRAMFS_OVERLAY_STORAGE_PATH. If the mount fails
the boot is aborted.

e.g.:
```
INITRAMFS_OVERLAY_STORAGE_PARTITION_LABEL ??= "var"
INITRAMFS_OVERLAY_PATHS ??= "/etc /usr/share/foo /usr/share/bar/foo"
INITRAMFS_OVERLAY_STORAGE_PATH ??= "/var/local"
```
1. This will mount the partition labeled var to /var
2. This will create  the following overlays:

```
overlay on /etc type overlay (rw,relatime,lowerdir=/root/etc,upperdir=/root/var/local/etc,workdir=/root/var/local/.etc-atomic)
overlay on /usr/share/foo type overlay (rw,relatime,lowerdir=/root/usr/share/foo,upperdir=/root/var/local/usr/share/foo,workdir=/root/var/local/.usr_share_foo-atomic)
overlay on /usr/share/bar/foo type overlay (rw,relatime,lowerdir=/root/usr/share/bar/foo,upperdir=/root/var/local/usr/share/bar/foo,workdir=/root/var/local/.usr_share_bar_foo-atomic)
```

Changes v2:
 - INITRAMFS_OVERLAY_STORAGE_PATH contains the full path
 - updated copyright
 - formatting
 - fix typos in commit message

Changes v3:
 - add awk to generate a unique wordir name from the full overlay path
 - allow absolute paths in INITRAMFS_OVERLAY_PATHS
 - ensure that subpath, e.g. `/usr/share/bar/foo` are possible in INITRAMFS_OVERLAY_PATHS
 - adapt commit message

Should we split mounting /var in a seperate hook with a build time dependency and only check if 
INITRAMFS_OVERLAY_STORAGE_PATH is writable instead of adding the mount logic directly?

I indented these lines a bit more to improve readability.
