Whoops -- it turns out that this was a local diff that never quite got
committed. I've now done so in r357335- sorry about that! They should
be there in next week's snapshots.

Yeah, so by default we just install the overlays that our stock
config.txt wants to use. This is a decision that we should perhaps
consider revisiting so that users of RPi* can just enable an overlay
they may have just heard about or discovered rather than also having
to fetch it and install it.
