feat: read Lakka's board for the install

Lakka's image writes the board in /etc/os-release: LIBREELEC_DEVICE when built for a device, LIBREELEC_PROJECT otherwise, the very names of our Lakka targets. The installer read the board on Batocera, Recalbox and ROCKNIX only, so a Lakka RPi4 installed 5.7 GB of every board's files where its own needs 4.0.
