[Bug 2098525] Re: Add dracut support for update-initramfs command

Maintaining `update-initramfs` for added control and compatibility for
the transition seems a good idea.

I am wondering if instead of calling `dracut` directly from `update-
initramfs`, it should call `kernel-install add-all` and let `kernel-
install` call `dracut`.

Title:
  Add dracut support for update-initramfs command

Status in dracut package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  As requested by bdrung here: https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/spec-
  switch-to-dracut/54776/7?u=mhalano, I'm opening this ticket.

  The idea is to add support for dracut in the `update-initramfs`
  command. The idea is to use the same easy syntax with dracut as we use
  to use with initramfs-tools.

  I don't know for sure what is the optimal approach to solve this,
  though, maybe add support to the command creating a more agnostic
  tool, or create a wrapper just for dracut.
