02caps: do not create /bin/sh link
caps.sh use !/bin/bash explictly, so no need to ln -sf bash /bin/sh
OTOH, 00dash will create the symlink /bin/sh, 99base will create it if
there's no /bin/sh symlink. It looks bad to creat /bin/sh in other modules.
If a script want to use bash as command interpreter it should use !/bin/bash
or !/bin/sh in case dash is not installed.

This adds the following parameters:
rd.caps=1
turn the caps module on/off
rd.caps.initdrop=cap_sys_module,cap_sys_rawio
drop the specified comma seperated capabilities
rd.caps.disablemodules=1
turn off module loading
rd.caps.disablekexec=1
turn off the kexec functionality
If module loading is turned off, all modules have to be loaded in the
initramfs, which are used later on. This can be done with
"rd.driver.pre="
rd.driver.pre=autofs4,sunrpc,ipt_REJECT,nf_conntrack_ipv4,....
Because the kernel command line would get huge with all those drivers, I
recommend to make use of $initramfs/etc/cmdline.
So, all rd.caps.* and rd.driver.pre arguments are in caps.conf can be
copied to $initramfs/etc/cmdline with "-i caps.conf /etc/cmdline".
Also all modules have to be loaded in the initramfs via "--add-drivers".
The resulting initramfs creation would look like this:
--add-drivers "autofs4 sunrpc ipt_REJECT nf_conntrack_ipv4 \
nf_defrag_ipv4 iptable_filter ip_tables
ip6t_REJECT nf_conntrack_ipv6 nf_defrag_ipv6 xt_state nf_conntrack
ip6table_filter ip6_tables dm_mirror dm_region_hash dm_log uinput ppdev
parport_pc parport ipv6 sg 8139too 8139cp mii i2c_piix4 i2c_core ext3
jbd mbcache sd_mod crc_t10dif sr_mod cdrom ata_generic pata_acpi ata_piix
dm_mod" \
