[initial-setup][rhel7-branch][PATCH 0/3] Externally triggered reconfig mode

This patch set adds initial support for running Initial setup in an externally triggered reconfig mode.
It's making use of the already preset reconfig mode (used for example on Fedora ARM images) that can
be enabled from kickstart but makes it possible to trigger it externally without the need to touch
the kickstart generated by Anaconda.

How to use this:
1) touch /etc/reconfigSys
2) systemctl enable initial-setup-graphical.service
3) reboot
4) reconfigure your system
5) click on the "finish configuration" button
6) reboot

Why "/etc/reconfigSys" ?

Looks like we have been using this file some time in the past[0] to trigger a system reconfiguration,
so I've decided to reuse the same path.
