Kernel 7.1 unpacks the initramfs asynchronously, which races /init: the
early /proc, /sys, /dev, and /run mounts fail with EPERM while unpacking
settles, so plymouthd exits when it can't read /proc/cmdline and encrypted
boots fall back to an unthemed text LUKS prompt. Boot still completes only
because the kernel passes key=value cmdline params to init as environment
variables and devtmpfs is automounted.
Force synchronous unpacking via initramfs_async=0 until the race is fixed
upstream: in the packaged defaults for fresh installs, and via migration
for existing systems.

* Align MAX_SNAPSHOT_ENTRIES with Snapper retention
Snapper is configured with NUMBER_LIMIT="5", but limine-snapper-sync
also counts the freshly-created / currently-booted snapshot, so five
retained snapshots are reported as six entries and it warns on every
snapshot and update:
Snapshot limit mismatch: 6 Snapper snapshots exceed configured
MAX_SNAPSHOT_ENTRIES=5
Raise MAX_SNAPSHOT_ENTRIES to 6 (NUMBER_LIMIT + 1) so the boot-menu cap
and Snapper's retention agree and the off-by-one warning stops. (An
alternative is MAX_SNAPSHOT_ENTRIES=auto, which derives the cap from
Snapper directly; kept an explicit value here to preserve the existing
boot-menu limit.)
