The UKL process might depend on setup that is to be done by user space
prior to its initialization. We need a way to let userspace signal that it
is ready for the UKL process to run. We will have setup a special name for
this process in the kernel config and if this name is passed to exec that
will start the UKL process. This way, if user space setup is required we
can be sure that the process doesn't run until explicitly started.
If a more traditional unikernel execution is desired, set the init= boot
param to the UKL process name.
