Public bug reported:

The different power profiles require loading the nvidia drivers with
different options (or blacklisting them, in case of intel mode).

We need to call update-initramfs whenever we switch to a different
profile, or things may fall out sync, resulting in a failure.

The update-initramfs command takes a few seconds, therefore we also need
to provide feedback, so that users know that they have to wait for the
operation to complete. For this reason, prime-select will provide a
spinner on the command line, and nvidia-settings will show a progress
dialog.
