Code Issues Proposed changes

Force installation of prestage iso when force_install option is 

provided through the kernel commandline

When there is an existing installation on the subcloud, the
kickstart will ensure that it is not overwritten by the prestaged
iso.

However, when the force_install option is provided via the kernel
commandline, the existing installation can be overwritten.

Test Plan:
PASS: Verify that the prestage iso overwrites the existing
      installation when the force_install option is provided at
      the kernel commandline.

PASS: Verify that the installation halts with a message, if there
      is an existing installation and force_install option is
      not provided at the kernel commandline.

PASS: Verify that the prestage iso installs when there is no
      pre-existing installation and force_install is provided

PASS: Verify that above tests pass on NVMe-based systems

Regression:
PASS: Verify that the prestage iso installs without force_install
      and no installation exists
