[YOCTO #1487]
When booting up with liveCD image, init scripts can't work well on read-only
filesystem. Unionfs,
which is supported in Yocto kernel, allows a filesystem to appear as writeable,
but without
actually allowing writes to change the filesystem.
Use unionfs to mount rootfs and make root file system can be writen when using
liveCD to boot up.
Set UNION_FS variable depending on kernel config, so that it can work with
kernel which doesn't
have unionfs feature.
