Use environment variable TMPDIR (typically /run/user/$UID) as default
temporary directory, if available. This should be more private
location than /var/tmp. Path specified with --tmpdir is takes
precedence over TMPDIR and /var/tmp is still used as last resort if
neither TMPDIR is set nor --tmpdir is used.

dracut.sh already doesn't call fsfreeze if the output file is on
the root file system. For btrfs, however, this is not sufficient.
Because fsfreeze is a superblock operation, and all btrfs subvolumes
share the same superblock, fsfreeze may freeze the entire system
if the subvolume on which the output file is written and / are
subvolumes of the same file system. Avoid this by comparing file
system UUIDs for btrfs.
Fixes: de576db3c2 ("call fsfreeze(8) on /boot to flush initramfs data & metadata to media")
Detection of persistent memory devices works mostly out of the box
already. Only the "provider" modules for ndbus devices, which are responsible
to extract information of available NVDIMM devices and their configuration
from system firmware, are only indirectly linked into the module stack.
Examples for such modules are nfit.ko, nd_e820.ko, and virtio-pmem.ko.
Add a module that resolves these dependencies.
With GNU Make 4.3 on both ArchLinux, and VoidLinux,
GITVERION is always empty because of bad substitution.
Change '\#' to simply '#' can fix it,
but we don't need that complation.
We can merge DRACUT_MAIN_VERSION and GITVERSION into DRACUT_FULL_VERSION.
Because, GITVERSION will be attached back to DRACUT_MAIN_VERSION in all
situation.
While we're at it, detect if we're in git worktree by:
limiting GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES to parent directory of
dracut's top level directory; instead of checking for .git directory,
in order to support git-worktree, in such case, .git will be a file, see
gitrepository-layout(5)
DRM drivers are filtered for drm_crtc_init symbol,
but not all drivers use it. Especially, cirrus driver
doesn't use it since Linux 5.2.
The practical result is text plymouth theme instead of graphical when in qemu.
Fix it by looking also for drm_dev_register symbol.

Currently there is no usb support on RPi4 in the
initrd phase as the pcie-brcmstb module is missing.
If part of the boot is handled from a USB stick
(e.g. with Ignition), the stick cannot be accessed.

systemd provides its own cryptsetup facilities, and the
cryptsetup binary might not even exist, failing
to execute the discard flag processing.
Fixes#602
Debian mkinitramfs does not create the file 'early_cpio', so detection
of additional cpio images fails and only the first cpio is listed.
I checked some Arch and Gentoo initramfs files and these didn't have
'early_cpio' either, but they also have only one cpio part.
Fix this so that if check for 'early_cpio' fails, check if firmware
files ('/kernel/*/microcode/*.bin') exist.

If the temporary directory for images is mounted with 'noexec', dracut
would construct unbootable images because most dynamic libraries
aren't installed. Avoid this by not resolving library dependencies
lazily if the temporary directory is mounted with 'noexec'.

GitHub workflows fetch a clone of the dracut repository which doesn't
contain git tags, thus "breaking" the RPM build in certain situations
i.e.:
DRACUT_MAIN_VERSION in Makefile is defined as an output of `git describe`,
which in full git clone returns a tag with a numeric version. However,
without tags it returns SHA of the last commit, which later propagates into
`Provides:` attribute of the built RPM and can break dependency tree when
installed
`make rpm` usually chose `/tmp` as the `$rpmbuild` dir, which breaks the
dracut build, since it needs to execute `./configure`, but `/tmp` is
mounted with `-o noexec`, leading to:
```
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.SwEhJO: line 46: ./configure: Permission denied
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.SwEhJO (%build)
RPM build errors:
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.SwEhJO (%build)
```
Switching to `/var/tmp` helps in this case.
