MR for overlayroot support in cloud-initramfs-tools



Please review  https://salsa.debian.org/cloud-team/cloud-initramfs-tools/-/merge_requests/5

Details:
overlayfs is a fs kernel module
overlayroot is a package of scripts and conf that uses overlayfs to
remount / on tmpfs and whatever / was originally mounted on (including
nfs.)
overlayroot's upstream:
https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-initramfs-tools/tree/overlayroot/scripts/init-bottom/overlayroot

8 years ago overlayroot was removed due to missing dependency overlayfs
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=732788";

overlayfs is now in stable, I am using the current overlayroot in a
project, so it would be good if the package was put back.

upstream overlayroot has undergone changes over the 8 years, the MR
include the changes, not the version from 8 years ago.
