The Raspberry Pi bootloader reads configuration values from config.txt
in the boot partition. This file allows to specify the amount of memory
to assign to the GPU, the license keys for hardware MPEG-2 and VC-1
decoding, Device Tree parameters and overlays, and lots of other things.
Since sysupgrade only restores the configuration after booting the newly
flashed image, these values will not be active, even if sysupgrade would
save /boot/config.txt. To solve this, add the file to the files to be
backed up, and restore it in platform_copy_config, before reboot.

For targets using the generic board detection and board specific
settings in diag.sh, the board name is still unset at the time the
set_state() provided by diag.sh is called by 10_indicate_preinit.
Change the execution order to ensure the boardname is populated before
required the first time. Do the target specific board detection as
early as possible, directly followed by the generic one to allow a
seamless switch to the generic function for populating /tmp/sysinfo/.

Now that the firmware for BCM43430 has been submitted to linux-firmware use it
and remove RPiDistro package.

Implement a crude but functioning sysupgrade image check for the
Raspberry Pi. The code only checks if the master boot record boot
signature (0x55aa) is present in the first 512-bytes at the correct
location. This can prevent the odd bricking of a system when flashing
the wrong file.

This way it's easier to configure device tree overlays, customize other
parameters...

Implement sysupgrade for Raspberry Pi, similar to the way it is done on x86:
The config files are saved in the boot partition and moved to where they are
normally expected in preinit.
Also add optional gzip compression for the SD card image, since this can save
a lot of space (76M vs 6M), also similar to x86.
