When Dracut starts up, it needs to determine whether a pool will remain
"hanging open" before the system shuts off. In such a case, then the
code to clean up the pool (using the previous export -F work) must
be invoked. Since Dracut has had a recent change that makes
mount-zfs.sh simply not run when the root dataset is already mounted,
we must use the cleanup hook to order Dracut to do shutdown cleanup.
Important note: this code will not accomplish its stated goal until this
bug is fixed: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1385432
That bug impacts more than just ZFS. It impacts LUKS, dmraid, and
unmount during poweroff. It is a Fedora-wide bug.

The behavior of the Dracut module was very wrong before.
The correct behavior: initramfs should not run `zfs-mount` to completion
if the two generator files exist. If, however, one of them is missing,
it indicates one of three cases:
* The kernel command line did not specify a root ZFS file system, and
another Dracut module is already handling root mount (via systemd).
`mount-zfs` can run, but it will do nothing.
* There is no systemd to run `sysroot.mount` to begin with.
`mount-zfs` must run.
* The root parameter is zfs:AUTO, which cannot be run in sysroot.mount.
`mount-zfs` must run.
In any of these three cases, it is safe to run `zfs-mount` to completion.
`zfs-mount` must also delete itself if it determines it should not run,
or else Dracut will do the insane thing of running it over and over again.
Literally, the definition of insanity, doing the same thing that did not
work before, expecting different results. Doing that may have had a great
result before, when we had a race between devices appearing and pools
being mounted, and `mount-zfs` was tasked with the full responsibility
of importing the needed pool, but nowadays it is wrong behavior and
should be suppressed.
I deduced that self-deletion was the correct thing to do by looking at
other Dracut code, because (as we all are very fully aware of) Dracut
is entirely, ahem, "implementation-defined".

Closes#5157Closes#5204
- In older systems without sysroot.mount, import before dracut-mount,
and re-enable old dracut mount hook
- rootflags MUST be present even if the administrator neglected to
specify it explicitly
- Check that mount.zfs exists in sbindir
- Remove awk and head as (now unused) requirements, add grep, and
install the right mount.zfs
- Eliminate one use of grep in Dracut
- Use a more accurate grepping statement to identify zfsutil in rootflags
- Ensure that pooldev is nonempty
- Properly handle /dev/sd* devices and more
- Use new -P to get list of zpool devices
- Bail out of the generator when zfs:AUTO is on the root command line
- Ignore errors from systemctl trying to load sysroot.mount, we only
care about the output
- Determine which one is the correct initqueuedir at run time.
- Add a compatibility getargbool for our detection / setup script.
- Update dracut .gitignore files

The dracut code is analogous to the initramfs code and as such
it should be located in the contrib with initramfs for consistency.
