Allow to specify which type of persistent device name should be used to build up the list of installation disk devices. For example rd.kiwi.install.devicepersistency=by-path would use the by-path representations for the available disk devices. The default (by-id) stays untouched. In case an invalid or not present device representation is selected, kiwi falls back to the non persistent unix node names.

I am just a bit lost on how disk_id variable is defined, I see gets defined by two different inputs and that rd.kiwi.install.devicepersistency flag has priority over the other setup, which is not clear for me where it is coming from. I don't see any issue with it, just a behavior I could not double check.
