Support RaspberryPi clients #4

Do some research about what needs to be done on the LTSP server, in order to support RaspberryPi clients. Can ltsp-manager be improved to support this scenario, so that it can be used as easy as possible?

To test this you will need an ARM test client (since RaspberryPi has an ARM processor). However VirtualBox only supports Intel processors (i386/amd64). So, maybe you should use QEMU, which can emulate ARM processors. https://azeria-labs.com/emulate-raspberry-pi-with-qemu/
