[Bug 1769949] [NEW] initramfs hook, should allow configuration via conf.d drop-ins

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

Public bug reported:

Currently the initramfs hook clears the configuration variables, before
importing the user conffile.

However, most other initramfs hooks allow configuration via conf.d drop-
ins. Adding such support would be useful, specifically for image/iso
building. Most of the time, the installers and the bare-metal images
ideally want to contain microcode for all CPUs, not the builder's CPU.

** Affects: intel-microcode (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
