Add rsync to initramfs for toram progress output

live-boot already uses rsync --progress when /bin/rsync exists; without
it the copy falls back to silent cp -a. Add rsync to the ISO package
list and install an initramfs-tools hook (bee-rsync) that copies the
rsync binary + shared libs into the initrd via copy_exec. The hook then
rebuilds the initramfs so the change takes effect in the ISO's initrd.img.
