postmarketos-initramfs: export logs on boot failure (MR 4646)
Currently, when postmarketOS fails to boot up, retrieving any
information necessary to root cause the issue is non-trivial, requiring
building a custom initramfs with debug-shell enabled and then manually
copying out data.

Let's improve the situation by exporting logs automatically on boot
failure. This is safer than just exposing a root shell but still
provides a whole lot of useful info that should make duplicating and
triaging issues much easier for developers.

This commit implements the functionality and includes some generally
useful data. We then generate a README and expose files for each command/log
as well as an archive that can be easily attached to a GitLab issue.

To help with triaging, also record the version of the postmarketos-initramfs
package and hash the init.sh and init_functions.sh files.

For testing purposes, you can trigger the log recovery mode on-time by
creating an empty file named ".pmos_export_logs" in the /boot partition.

e885f6a725 Add a maximum-attention hook to help with debugging boot issues ()
The hook flashes every LED it can find, as well as the vibration motor.
More paths are probably necessary to support more devices and kernels.
