cmdline
If the rootfs is an nfs mount, also know as nfsroot, add the correct
parameter to the dracut cmdline.

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).
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.
Previously if "$rootok" = 1, parsing of netroot command line arguments
was skipped. For multiple netroot arguments, all parse scripts have to
run.
Previously only the first netroot argument was taken into account for
the parsing scripts. Now every netroot argument is processed.

For nfs4, in case nfs.ko is not loaded mount.nfs4 will try to load
nfs4.ko instead of nfs.ko. Fedora nfs-utils creates a lib/modprobe.d/nfs.conf
in which there's below alias:
alias nfs4 nfs
Dracut also need this file to auto load nfs kernel module.
Tested booting to a fedora 17 nfsroot share.

Another solution could be searching in directories found at
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf or adding a new parameter. Here is a patch
which adds a new --libdirs parameter, and also a new inst_libdir_file
function which will try to expand metacharacters on each lib
directory:
inst_libdir_file "libdevmapper-event-lvm*.so"
nfs-lib.sh contains a bunch of functions used to parse NFS "url"s of
various types, pull nfs information out of dhcp info, and actually
perform nfs mounts sanely.

fstab-sys will mount nonroot nfs as well, so we need to split the necessary
code from nfsroot to start rpc daemon as hook script.

ssh module will need root user in /etc/passwd, so add root and nobody
to /etc/passwd in 99base instead of nfs module
