Migrate from aufs to overlayfs

Originally created by @intrigeri on #8415 (Redmine)

Tails uses aufs, that is 1. is a pain to use with the grsecurity patchset; 2. is out-of-tree and requires aufs-dkms. overlayfs has none of these problems. It’s been merged into Linux 3.18 and the Debian kernel team would like to drop support for aufs at some point.

team: segfault, intrigeri

Feature Branch: feature/6560-secure-boot+force-all-tests, https://salsa.debian.org/tails-team/tails/-/merge_requests/44/
