For the shell scripts, new environment variables were introduced.
dracutsysrootdir is the root directory, file existence checks use it.
DRACUT_LDCONFIG can override ldconfig with a different one that works
on the sysroot with foreign binaries.
DRACUT_LDD can override ldd with a different one that works
with foreign binaries.
DRACUT_TESTBIN can override /bin/sh. A cross-compiled sysroot
may use symlinks that are valid only when running on the target
so a real file must be provided that exist in the sysroot.
DRACUT_INSTALL now supports debugging dracut-install in itself
when run by dracut but without debugging the dracut scripts.
E.g. DRACUT_INSTALL="valgrind dracut-install or
DRACUT_INSTALL="dracut-install --debug".
DRACUT_COMPRESS_BZIP2, DRACUT_COMPRESS_LBZIP2, DRACUT_COMPRESS_LZMA,
DRACUT_COMPRESS_XZ, DRACUT_COMPRESS_GZIP, DRACUT_COMPRESS_PIGZ,
DRACUT_COMPRESS_LZOP, DRACUT_COMPRESS_ZSTD, DRACUT_COMPRESS_LZ4,
DRACUT_COMPRESS_CAT: All of the compression utilities may be
overridden, to support the native binaries in non-standard places.
DRACUT_ARCH overrides "uname -m".
SYSTEMD_VERSION overrides "systemd --version".
The dracut-install utility was overhauled to support sysroot via
a new option -r and fixes for clang-analyze. It supports
cross-compiler-ldd from
https://gist.github.com/jerome-pouiller/c403786c1394f53f44a3b61214489e6f
DRACUT_INSTALL_PATH was introduced so dracut-install can work with
a different PATH. In a cross-compiled environment (e.g. Yocto), PATH
points to natively built binaries that are not in the host's /bin,
/usr/bin, etc. dracut-install still needs plain /bin and /usr/bin
that are relative to the cross-compiled sysroot.
The hashmap pool allocate_tile/deallocate_tile code was removed
because clang-analyze showed errors in it. hashmap_copy was removed
because it wasn't used and clang-analyze showed errors in it.
DRACUT_INSTALL_LOG_TARGET and DRACUT_INSTALL_LOG_LEVEL were
introduced so dracut-install can use different settings from
DRACUT_LOG_TARGET and DRACUT_LOG_LEVEL.

It ends up installing the label.so control plugin which isn't supposed
to get installed into the initrd. this makes cairo and libX11 and all sorts of
things move into the initrd that aren't supposed to.
The reason this works is that inst will refuse to overwrite a file that
already exists. We jsut make plymouth's code to ask for a password have the
same name as 90crypt's password asking script, and it will override 90crypt's
script while leaving everything else intact.
