[kirkstone][PATCH 2/2] classes: files: Extend overlayfs-etc class

[Vyacheslav Yurkov <uvv.mail@gmail.com>]

From: Vyacheslav Yurkov <v.yurkov@precitec.de>

Add the ability to expose the lower layer of /etc when mounting overlay.
This is the similar to what overlayroot script from initramfs-framework does.

By default, this option is turned off to keep an old behavior intact.
