consider running bootupctl update as part of firstboot

[cgwalters]

Today the bootloader stack is updated outside of ostree - for us via https://github.com/coreos/bootupd/

But nothing runs that by default because it's not transactional.

OTOH today, for the initial provisioning of machines, the Ignition phase is definitely not transactional when it does things like repartitioning disks. So we might as well run bootupctl update by default as part of the firstboot phase.

A big big difference here between the "stock FCOS" and RHCOS flows is that for RHCOS (well, OCP, which includes OKD-using-FCOS) we always do this OS update before landing user workloads. So we'll always have the OS update available.

Ah but this definitely wants coreos/bootupd#108
