I use similar stuff in my config scripts, just differently.

I do `set system. at system[-1].firstboot_done='1'` in order to know, that
the system was already first time booted.

So if the user performs sysupgrade but prefers to keep settings, I don't run
uci-default scripts which performs one time setup stuff, like setting
hostname, generating unique auth token etc. basically it boils down to
`is_firstboot || exit 0` in those one time uci-default scripts.
