Add `less` to HA OS

Feature Requests
1

When working with the HA OS via terminal, the less command is missing.
The thing is, journalctl uses less by default to provide pagination/searching/etc. So without less being installed, you end up printing out more logging than you can look at - and no simple way to search with context, etc.
Look I know I can filter using journalctl directly, or pipe in to grep, but less should just be included :slight_smile:
