Public bug reported:
I was trying to seed U-Boot on an x86 image. scripts/ubuntu-core-rootfs
can not detect the bootloader actually in use. In my case, U-Boot will
be completely ignored on x86. Snappy can however detect bootloader type
successfully with other criteria on boot_partition instead of on
rootmount, which is inconsistent with initramfs-tools-ubuntu-core.
initramfs-tools-ubuntu-core should either
1. take over system-boot mount and use /boot/uboot/uboot.env and
/boot/grub/grub.cfg to detect the desired bootloader type, or
2. support bootloader type override through kernel cmdline, e.g. new parameter
"snappy_bootloader=uboot"
** Affects: initramfs-tools-ubuntu-core (Ubuntu)
