Allow including initramfs-extra files in the initramfs (MR 48)

This uses a "deviceinfo_create_initfs_extra" to allow including
initramfs-extra files in the initramfs and skip creating a separate
initramfs-extra archive when it's set to "false".
If this variable is unset, mkinitfs uses a default value of "false".
