If deployment ID data is set in the first sector after the GPT, before the repartitioning process during first boot, extract this information and save it for metrics consumption by appending it to the eos-image-version extended file attribute on /sysroot.

This commit does not introduce any functional changes.
Before re-writing the partition table, look for deployment ID data after
the last partition + GPT. This data then gets written to a file at
/run/eos-metrics/deployment-id.txt, for consumption by a separate
service, eos-metrics-deployment-id-setup.service, after /sysroot is
mounted.

This adds a new dependency on dd to the eos-repartition dracut module.

https://phabricator.endlessm.com/T30721
This module contains a initrd service that reads a deployment ID from
/run/eos-metrics/deployment-id.txt, if present, and append it to the
eos-image-version xattr in /sysroot.
