Support automatic kernel updates on Android devices

Caleb Connolly requested to merge sdm845-mainline/pmaports:android-update-kernel into master

Depends on !2214 (merged).

This MR adds all the bits needed for automatic kernel updates for Android devices! It also enables that functionality on the OnePlus 6 and 6T.

I've added a new deviceinfo variable: deviceinfo_flash_kernel_on_update, the kernel will not be flashed unless this variable is set. There is also a new function in mkinitfs_functions to run pmos-update-kernel if it is installed. It's not installed automatically and should instead be depended on in the device APKBUILD.
