Currently when initqueue timeout, it span the console with
"dracut-initqueue timeout - starting timeout scripts", which isn't very
helpful as we still don't know what actually happened. Try to improve
this by print what is actually being waited.
Besides, only print "starting timeout scripts" when there are
actual timeout scripts to use.

In commit 49c4172 all shell based memory tracing functions are removed,
there are some left over. Remove them as well.

This feature could be off loaded to memstrack, which have better
accurecy, better performance, and have more detailed tracing features.
Also simplify make_trace_mem a bit.
And currently rd.memdebug=4 is unstable, fails from time to time.
- allow emergency login on every console
specified in the kernel cmdline
- require password for hostonly images
- emergency mode: Manually multiplex emergency infos
This will bring all vital information to all ttys specified
as console devices, regardless of wether they hold the C flag.

This is what happened before this patch (edited for brevity):
dracut-cmdline-ask.service in modules.d/98dracut-systemd, which invokes
dracut-cmdline-ask.sh. This script and systemd-vconsole-setup are
started in parallel for the same console (tty1).
Then dracut-cmdline-ask quits immediately without doing anything (unless
rd.cmdline=ask is given). As this is a bash script and it gets tty as
stdin as specified in its *.service, this triggers the hangup of tty1 at
its exit.
Meanwhile systemd-vconsole-setup continues and tries some ioctls after
that, but they fail because of the hung up tty1.
The usual culprit for starting systemd-vconsole-setup early on is
plymouth-start.service, even if plymouth.enable=0 is set.
A popular (and annoying) symptom of this as reported by users was
the inability use their configured keyboard layout in plymouth when
unlocking their crypted block devices.

Allow filesystem modules to install a fs-specific text file with
instructions on what to do when mount fails. This is printed when we go into
an emergency shell.

Type=oneshot, as currently set in dracut's emergency service file,
causes an awkward situation if emergency mode is entered e.g. because
of a root device timeout, and the root device appears later because it
just has taken longer than the timeout. In that situation, my
expectation (backed by past positive experience) is that the user should
be able to simply exit the emergency shell and resume normal boot.

Failed to start default.target: Transaction is destructive.
(system keeps idling from this point on, user has no chance to
do anything).
This results from the combination of two effects:
1) initrd-root-fs.target sets "OnFailureJobMode=replace-irreversibly",
2) emergency.service's Type=oneshot causes the start jobs for both
emergency.service and emergency.target to persist while the user is in
the emergency shell.
When the shell is exited, systemd tries to isolate "initrd.target"
again, but this fails with "the transaction is destructive" error
because of the still pending jobs.
This patch fixes this by changing the Type of "emergency.service" from
"oneshot" to "idle".
JobRunningTimeoutSec now affects how long can start jobs for device
units stay in the "running" state. Disabling default job timeout via
JobTimeoutSec=0 doesn't disable running state timeout. We need to set
running state timeout as well.
Note that doing this the other way around has effect on generic timeout,
i.e. disabling running state timeout disables generic timeout. But doing
it this way we would create implicit dependency on fairly new
systemd-234. However, by setting both options we don't create dependency
on specific systemd version.
This used to work only when specified via the command line
or if systemd was not being used. However, the exisistence of
20_force_driver.conf also requires dracut-pre-udev.service
to be run.

When 'systemctl daemon-reload' is run, systemd will clean out
/run/systemd/generator and re-run all the generators.
So it is important that the generators always create the required
files.
rootfs-generator.sh currently does *not* create the desired files
if $hookdir/initqueue/finished/devexists-${_name}.sh
exists.
This is not removed by "systectl daemon-reload" so the first time this
generator is run it will do the right thing. Subsequent times it
won't.
This results in incorrect timeouts after "daemon-reload" is run.
So let the existence of each file only guard the creation that file.
