In device root directory, we have the following symlinks:
- /odm/app -> /vendor/odm/app
- /odm/bin -> /vendor/odm/bin
- /odm/etc -> /vendor/odm/etc
...
This allows the Generic System Image (GSI) to be used on both devices:
1) Has a physical odm partition, where those symlink will be hidden
when /odm is used as the mount point
2) Has no physical odm partition and fallback to /vendor/odm/.
We can't just have the symlink /odm -> /vendor/odm, because the former
devices won't have /vendor/odm directory, which leads to mount failure
when the mount point /odm is resolved to /vendor/odm.
The existing /vendor/odm/build.prop won't be loaded in the latter
devices, because there is no symlink
- /odm/build.prop -> /vendor/odm/build.prop.
Note that init blocks reading through direct symlinks (O_NOFOLLOW) so
the above symlink won't work either. This CL moves the odm build.prop
to /odm/etc/build.prop for init to load it (symlinks in earlier
components of the path will still be followed by O_NOFOLLOW).
Bug: 132128501
Test: boot a device and checks /odm/etc/build.prop is loaded
