BOARD_PREBUILT_BOOTIMAGE: removes the restriction of non system-as-root
Starting from Android 10, the system.img layout consists of $TARGET_SYSTEM_OUT and $TARGET_ROOT_OUT, and is mounted by the init as root. That is, system.img is always created as if BOARD_BUILD_SYSTEM_ROOT_IMAGE was set. https://source.android.com/devices/bootloader/partitions/system-as-root The previous concern is that there might be compatibility issues between the ramdisk contained in boot.img with a newer system.img. But this is no longer an issue after we always mount the system.img as root. Bug: 187157581 Test: Tree Hugger Change-Id: I4537e6ce6fb39b4b86caac82a13716abf515ffd6
