[RFC PATCH] image: Reorder do_copy_boot_files task

[Vijai Kumar K <Vijaikumar_Kanagarajan@mentor.com>]

There might be cases where in there are some initramfs changes in postprocess.
For example, via the distro config script.

In such a scenario we would have an outdated initramfs file in deploy directory.
Certain downstream Wic plugins directly consume the image from deploy directory.
It then uses the outdated initramfs for creating the wic image.

Copy boot files after rootfs postprocess but before finalizing the
rootfs.
