clearfog: Introduce a /cfg partition for persistent changes
The idea is to store whatever important bits that need real persistence
in there.
Note that I am deliberately *not* using this as the upper directory for
the /etc overlay. I inherited that company-wide worrying about flash
lifetime, and hence I would like to limit the amount of writes to some
reasonable minimum. That doesn't play terribly well with SW such as
sysrepo which happily stores both persistent and run-time data on disk,
in the same directory -- hence these ugly detours...
I've tried to do the right thing with the alignment:
- we need a 1MB of nothing at the very beginning for U-Boot and its
environment
- the eMMC version of the microSOM has 8GB of storage
- it probably makes sense to split that into two halves for
future-proofness, so that we don't have to deal with overlapping
partitions later
- finally, the 1MB gap between the end of cfg-A and the beginning of
rootfs-B is there to be symmetric with regards to the U-Boot's reserved
space in the first 1MB
Hopefully, we should be able to just (more or less) `dd` stuff in-place.
There's one missing piece: nothing explicitly puts stuff to /cfg/etc/,
yet.
