An unintended side effect was introduced in 21ef304, which caused the
auto-installer to reboot on error, even though the answer file option
`general.reboot_on_error` has been set to `false`.
When an error signal is received inside `unconfigured.sh` (after the
trap statement `trap 'err_reboot' ERR`), it causes any failing command
to execute the `err_reboot` function and therefore dropping the user in
the debug shell. One exception, as described under `trap` in bash(1), is
for a command being part of the test in an if statement. Therefore, if
the auto-installer failed, it won't trap to `err_reboot`.
Therefore, create a flag file "/run/proxmox-reboot-on-error" if the
auto-installer should reboot on error. If it should, the auto-installer
will be rebooted on error. If not, artificially trap to `err_reboot` to
drop into the debug shell.
The shell check at `err_reboot` can now be removed since the function is
called directly.
Fixes: 21ef304 ("unconfigured.sh: run proxmox-post-hook after successful
auto-install")

changes since v1 (thanks @Christoph):
- add a flag file "/run/proxmox-reboot-on-error"
- fix issue where `reboot_on_error` is ignored in general
- removing the shell check since `err_reboot` is called directly

Testing
I've tested this by booting the installer in debug mode, setting up DHCP
and patching the changes below. Otherwise I tested 8 possible scenarios,
where I simulated a failing auto install through trying to install a ZFS
RAID10 on only one disk and simulated a failing
post-installation-webhook by stopping the web server that handles the
POST request.
The following scenarios rebooted because of successful execution:
1. `reboot_on_error = false`, successful auto install
2. `reboot_on_error = false`, successful post-installation-webhook
3. `reboot_on_error = true`, successful auto install
4. `reboot_on_error = true`, successful post-installation-webhook
The following scenarios rebooted because of an error:
5. `reboot_on_error = true`, error during auto install
6. `reboot_on_error = true`, error during post-installation-webhook
And the following scenarios dropped into the debug shell:
7. `reboot_on_error = false`, error during auto install
8. `reboot_on_error = false`, error during post-installation-webhook
