mkjffs2: add (redboot) partition support
We now create a 50MB boot partition, and the rest goes to a root
partition. This shaves 7s off of bootup, as OFW only has to mount
/boot. It also provides us the opportunity to use other filesystems
in /, as long as we keep /boot using jffs2.

olpc.fth: auto-detect boot device during boot
Rather than hardcoding nand:\ or disk:\ (which is incorrect in the case
of sd:\), read the /chosen/bootpath device tree property to determine
which device is being booting from, and use that variable. This fixes
SD booting (which works now; tested!)

initchroot: update kernel and custom initramfs-tools
This kernel has the majority of things built as a module, and uses an
initrd. Some initramfs customizations are necessary, so provide
a custom initramfs-tools for now.

olpc.fth: add video=lxfb as a kernel argument
This is only necessary if lxfb is compiled as a module, but it doesn't
hurt. It tells the debian initramfs to load lxfb (so it gets loaded
as quickly as possible).

initchroot: add a workaround for #314334
jffs2 doesn't support shared mmap, so apt explodes (#314334). This
was the reason why we were mounting /var/cache/apt/cache over tmpfs;
readd the mount, and update apt.conf accordingly.
