Allows the use of bootsplashes in the Gentoo live media like the good 'ld days of fbsplash.

This is only enabled if livecd/plymouth:
is used in the livecd stag2. If unset then the old expected behaviour of just showing the kernel boot messages happens.

This requires plymouth and the theme to be installed in stage1 so it can be setup by Catalyst.

Plymouth is verbose enough to not require the use
of extra error messages to inform of mistakes made by the user.
