PXE Boot support

Originally created by @ronlaws86 on #11044 (Redmine)

Tails doesn’t appear to be bootable via PXE, the boot process gets stuck waiting for the ethernet card(s) to up,
though on the machines tested, a normal live boot from USB works just fine with working network drivers, the process hangs at this point and the kernel cannot obtain the squashfs file from the server to continue.

(suggestion: a build for pxe where the root fs is packed in the initrd similar to how it’s done with thinstation?)
