By convention, strstr should be a literal string match. Previously, it
would match as a glob pattern. Some code used that, so add new
functions strglob and strglobin to do what that code expects, and
specify them tightly too. strglob tests whether the glob pattern
matches the entire string (the name strglob is also used in the yorick
language, and that's what it does there), while strglobin tests whether
the glob pattern matches anywhere in the string.
Also tightens str_starts, str_ends, and str_replace to deal with
literal strings only. In a quick grep I did not find code that depended
on these functions matching globs.
Changes the call sites where strstr was used with glob patterns to use
strglobin or strglob as the intention seemed to be (or, in one case,
strstr with the * removed as it did not affect the result anyway).
With the following commit, dracut doesn't mount anything from /etc/fstab

fstab: do not mount and fsck from fstab if using systemd
But systemd doesn't mount nfs at all, because no unit is pulling in
remote-fs.target.
dracut must pull in these remote fs mount and all these remote mounts
should start only after network is up (ie. after dracut-initqueue).

Before modifying 69-dm-lvm-metad.rules, we should check for the
existance first. Otherwise this results in error messages on
distributions (debian), which do not ship these rules.
If using systemd in initramfs, we could run into a race condition when
dracut and systemd both are trying to mount and run fsck for the same
filesystem, and mount or fsck could be a failure.
To fix such failure, we should use systemd to mount/fsck from /etc/fstab
only.

The variable that dhclient sets doesn't have dhcp in the name. This
could cause problems with setups where the server is not the same as the
dhcp server.
Add new functions require_binaries() and require_any_binary() to be used
in the check() section of module-setup.sh.
These functions print a warning line telling the user, which binary is
missing for the specific dracut module.
This unifies the way of checking for binaries and makes the life of an
initramfs creator easier, if he wants to find out why a specific dracut
module is not included in the initramfs.
