base-files: board_detect: make resilient against power-cuts
If board_detect is interrupted by cutting power on first boot,
board.json might only be half-way written and the file will not be
written again correctly on subsequent boots.
Write to a temporary file first, then rename. Since a rename on the same
file system is an atomic operation, it ensures that either
/etc/board.json does not exist or that the complete file exists.
