CI: mkosi-mainline: Workaround 'dpkg: error: dpkg frontend lock'

Mkosi's own dracut hook, which is triggered from `dpkg -i`, calls `dpkg-reconfigure` causing dpkg frontend lock conflict. But `initrd.img` is generated correctly. Workaround by ignoring `dpkg-reconfigure` errors in the hook. dpkg: error: dpkg frontend lock was locked by another process with pid 5 Note: removing the lock file is always wrong, can damage the locked area and the entire system. See <https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Dpkg/FAQ#db-lock>. run-parts: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/zz-systemd-boot exited with return code 2 Link: #283 Signed-off-by: Vitaly Chikunov <[email protected]>
