[atomic-wg] Issue #448: Ability to alter settings in modprobe.d and have them affect initrd

[William Brown]

firstyear reported a new issue against the project: `atomic-wg` that you are following:
``
My laptop requires settings for sdhci and i915. I would like to have these in
ansible/version control and deployed to modprobe.d.

However, atomic does not allow me to update the initrd correctly. It would be good if
there was a way to generate the initrd for atomic images based on the content in the
modprobe.d directory to allow customisation.

This should already be possible:

```
initramfs
    By default, the primary use case mode for
    rpm-ostree is to replicate an initramfs as
    part of a base layer. However, some use
    cases require locally regenerating it to add
    configuration or drivers. Use rpm-ostree
    initramfs to inspect the current status.

    Use --enable to turn on client side
    initramfs regeneration. A new deployment
    will be generated, and after reboot, further
    upgrades will continue regenerating. You
    must reboot for the new initramfs to take
    effect.

    To append additional custom arguments to the
    initramfs program (currently dracut), use
    --arg. For example, --arg=-I
    --arg=/etc/someconfigfile.
```

So all you need to do is figure out what dracut args you need to pass in order to include
the files you want in the initrd and add them as `--arg='your args'` when you call
 `rpm-ostree initramfs`.
