[SRU] add swap file or partition to LicheeRV preinstalled image

[Heinrich Schuchardt]

[ Impact ]

A kernel upgrade from linux-allwinner 6.8 to linux-generic 6.17 fails due to the limited board memory (512 MiB) on the LicheeRV Dock. The Allwinner Nezha D1 is also memory constrained.

Add 1 GiB of swap space.

Both boards use the RISC-V RVA20 ISA and are not supported in Questing, Resolute.

[ Test Plan ]

Create and boot a preinstalled LicheeRV and a Allwinner Nezhal D1 image.

Check that /etc/fstab contains a swap entry.

Run the `free` command to check the swap space.

[ Where problems could occur ]

The change might impact other images or even result in build failures if done incorrectly.
