Use fakeroot and non-privileged commands (cpio) to generate the initrd #33

Unlike the current solution which uses mount and other privileged commands in order to generate the ramdisk, it is possible to use fakeroot and cpio to generate an initrd ramdisk without any privileges. Modify the initrd creation script to do this.

Evan and I have been pairing on this task. We spent 1 hour pairing on Friday and 3 hours pairing on Sunday, we have completed a refactoring of the make_initrd.sh but it currently failing the unit tests, so we are trying to see why it is failing (it may relate to the other ramdisk ticket).

Aria and I paired for 2 additional hours today. We made some good progress with using cpio but we're blocked on communication with the client.
