Ben Nemec 79ab95b16e Make sure all scripts are set -e
If scripts are not set -e then errors can be ignored, causing more
confusing failures later.

Also adds an exclusion comment to the ramdisk init script since we
don't want that to exit on failure.

This is the ramdisk element.

Almost any user building a ramdisk will want to include this in their build, as it triggers many of the vital functionality from the basic diskimage-builder libraries (such as init script aggregation, busybox population, etc).

An example of when one might want to use this toolchain to build a ramdisk would be the initial deployment of baremetal nodes in a TripleO setup. Various tools and scripts need to be injected into a ramdisk that will fetch and apply a machine image to local disks. That tooling/scripting customisation can be easily applied in a repeatable and automatable way, using this element.

See the top-level README.md of the project, for more information about the mechanisms available to a ramdisk element.
