Ostree doesn't manage the /var filesystem. Anything
installed there during initial filesystem setup becomes
unpatchable [1]. As a result, the kickstart install dir
/var/www/pages/feed/rel-${platform_release}/kickstart
is not updated according to patch changes. /var/www/pages/feed/rel-${platform_release}/kickstart
is currently only used for PXE boot installs.
Subcloud remote installations are using the miniboot.cfg
kickstart from the load-imported ISO
(we may want to change this in some future commit).
This commit adds kickstart update support to
pxeboot-feed.service (pxeboot_feed.sh) so that
/var/www/pages/feed/rel-${platform_release}/kickstarts
is refreshed based on the kickstart dir from
/ostree (i.e., the patched changes).

Test Plan:
1. PASS: Verify Debian build and DC system install
(virtual lab - disk and pxe installs)
2. PASS: Verify pxe install (DC remote install) with
patched kickstart
3. PASS: Create a patch with changes to kickstart feed:
- modify an existing kickstart
- create a new kickstart file
- delete an existing file
- create a new kickstart sub-directory
- modify centos subdir
verify patch apply, ensure that changes are
correctly applied to:
/var/www/pages/feed/rel-${platform_release}/kickstarts
4. PASS: Revert the patch from test #3 and ensure changes
are correctly undone in the feed dir
