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

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.

default_kernel_images and -i/-k paths are new (SuSE) code paths and
would have resulted in usage errors before.
There we want to build host only images for faster building and
smaller images.
Also force creation (overriding) of initrd images in these code paths.

-d is the SUSE mkinitrd version option to pass the rootfs.
-s is to enable splash which may not be needed, but some callers rely on it,
not to return an error.
Make this wrapper compatible to it.

Before this gave a "usage" error.
Now boot_dir (by default /boot) is scanned for available kernels and sane
initrd default targets get defined and the corresponding initramfs files
are generated.

Dracut is rather verbose. This optional parameter is to limit the output
to the essential: For each generated initrd show the kernel, target and
possibly additional options passed to dracut.

Currently --with parameter had to be passed as: --with="mod1 mod2".
Now one can pass: --with "mod1 mod2" or even --with mod1 mod2.

In SUSE, one can pass a list of kernel files via -k parameter.
For each an initrd is generated as passed via -i parameters.
Make the dracut mkinitrd wrapper compatible to those.
For now only one kernel file and initrd target can be specified.
This will get enhanced with a follow-up patch.

Current kernels know how to uncompress bzip2 and xz, so use them for compressing
the initramfs if asked. The more compression the merrier.
Also add support for generating uncompressed images, although they
are usually not what you want.
