liveupdate: document liveupdate=on
While the liveupdate= parameter is documented in kernel-parameters.txt, it is not listed in LUO's user facing documentation. This can make it hard for users to figure out how to enable the subsystem, since enabling just the config isn't enough. Note the need for the kernel parameter in LUO core documentation, which gets exported to Documentation/core-api/liveupdate.rst.
