Using a preseed file prevents overriding questions on the kernel cmdline
which might be required to e.g. override the network setup from the
detected one (this can't be done via a preseed URL since network isn't
up yet). Call debconf instead of using a preseed file, just like
lib/debian-installer-startup.d/S30env-preseed does to import environment
(passed to init which is busybox) into debconf. Thanks Colin Watson for
the advice!
Remove all mentions of "preseed file" from comments, variables, and
function names.
