Create /etc/resolv.conf in initramfs for tailscale client

On Debian systems, unless configured by something else, there isn't an
/etc/resolv.conf in the initramfs, which hinders DNS resolution.
Tailscale has its fallback DNS functionality, but that has problems [1]
in the corner-case situation of a Debian initramfs environment:

- no /etc/resolv.conf means tailscale (or golang?) attempts to use
  127.0.0.1 as a DNS resolver
- the loopback interface (lo) isn't brought up in the initramfs. linux
  sends the DNS traffic off-device (destined for 127.0.0.1)

Even with the Tailscale fix for that issue, it's a fallback and there's
a noticeable delay, so do the correct thing here and create
/etc/resolv.conf.
