feat(squash): use busybox for early setup if available

Use busybox can help reduce the size of early setup environment.

With this change, everything is packed in the squash image, and
the setup files will be dropped once squash image setup is done,
so initramfs stage memory usage is reduced to the minimun,
and initramfs decompress is also faster.

File layout of a squash initramfs looks like this:
