[Bug 1896115] [NEW] uc20 initramfs busybox missing less applet

Public bug reported:

the version of busybox in the initramfs of uc20, which derives from
ubuntu 20.04, does not have the less module/applet built into it, so
there is no less command available in the initramfs on uc20.

This is unfortunate as sometimes when debugging problems in the
initramfs it is useful to read large files, etc. using something like
less.
