Goal: reduce on-site configuration needed to commission a running instance #8

Few locations (e.g. rural schools) will have IT expertise or even the software needed to configure a RACHEL instance, so let's aim to reduce configuration to what's relevant to enable them to customise their instance to their context. Let's provide workable (adequate) pre-configurations, for instance as per the current ka-lite instance in the existing RACHEL images which are preconfigured so the software is able to be used by pupils, albeit without any logins.

For instance: Our current image automatically starts the Raspberry Pi configuration utility on first boot. We'd prefer to make any configuration changes using our scripts rather than having the Pi start and run this utility.
