When the initramfs is built with squash module enabled, the content
inside squash image will be invisible from the lsinitrd tool. This
commit make lsinitrd detect and list the content of the squash image as
well to avoid possible confusion.

- require password for hostonly images
- emergency mode: Manually multiplex emergency infos
This will bring all vital information to all ttys specified

busybox seems to not properly support this option,
and it can be be safely ommitted or replaced
with piping the output through head.
Rev 2:
* rebased on master
* addressed open points from review
Look for "connection-uuid" instead of "managed" to determine the devices
that are actually activated with a connection and call the online hook.
This fixes the anaconda-net root mount, which utilizes the online hook.
When building squash image, squash module forgot to install the new
shutdown.sh, and the shutdown hooks are always skipped on ordinary
shutdown if squash module is enabled.
The new shutdown.sh will remount the squash image and then everything
will just work, but currently re-mounting the squash image on shutdown
may have selinux problem and make the system hang, and there is no
easy way to fix it.
So skip fixing the shutdown.sh not being install problem, instead
just drop the new shutdown.sh, and unsquash the image on ordinary
shutdown, which is safer and should always work.

The kernel-install is called even if you run make install.
Since we don't call dracut with -f a second make install will fail
because initrd with same version is already there.
This makes kernel developers feel miserable.

These dependencies cause an odd issue where swap devices specified
by resume= on the kernel command line will cause systemd device
timeouts to occur on boot. According to @haraldh these lines aren't
needed because the socket activiation will take care of it for us.
Removing these lines now as it fixes the resume= device timeout issue.

The only time we need to cleanup squahfs manually is on switch root, to
release resource and memory. We've covered that by setting
"Conflicts=initrd-switch-root.target" for squash cleanup service.
On shutdown systemd will take care of squahfs mounts. But for other
isolate, files in initramfs are most likely still required, so don't
clean up squahfs. For example, kdump's emergency handler will isolate
into its own target, if squahfs is cleaned up it will fail.

commit 7347391 ('network-legacy: split off from network module')
splitted network function to network-legacy and removed check() function
of 40network. This caused 40network to be included even if network is
not needed.

70291e0 ('dracut.spec: Add dracut-squash package') introduced a new
dracut-squash package, but by accident it overrided some other package
spec and the dependency name is wrong. This patch will fix it.
The previous logic would not handle absolute paths on the left side of
the "=>" properly. For example, on Gentoo ARM64, ldd outputs this:
/lib/ld-linux-aarch64.so.1 => /lib64/ld-linux-aarch64.so.1
At runtime, the kernel tries to load the file from /lib, and fails if we
only provide it in /lib64.
Instead of looking for the first slash after the "=>", just look for the
first slash, period. This would fail if we somehow had a relative path
on the left side (foo/libbar.so), but I'm not aware of any binaries that
would contain such an entry in DT_NEEDED.

It parses depmod configuration and scans modules.dep for kernel modules
present in directories supplied in "overrides", "external", and "search"
depmod configuration options. The resulting list of (absolute) kernel
module paths is then supplied to instmods.

No way. Just ensure the links are there in the initramfs image. In fact,
that is already the case for iscsiuio.socket. Add iscsid.socket too.
If the network module obtained a lease using dhclient, NetworkManager
must be configured to use it too, otherwise it would obtain a different
lease (and could potentially break a connection to the network volume).
With all files stored in ramfs, and most of them are not compressed,
the initramfs will take up a lot of memory. Besides, if the file number
is large, each file will waste some memory due to page fragmetation.
This is due to ramfs' design, at least one page will be allocated for
one file however small the file is. On machine with large page size,
this will become worse and waste too many memory.
One approach to reducing the memory usage is to reduce the number of
files that got directly loaded into the root ramfs, and compress files
by put most files will into a read-only squash image and keep a minimum
set of executable and libraries outside as the loader for the squash
image. After the squash image is mounted, the real 'init' will be
executed and then everything behaves as usual.
This patch will introduce a '99squash' module which will never be
included by default. User can force add it, and if it is included,
dracut will perform some extra steps before creating the final image:
For now, "/etc" and "/usr" will be moved into the squashfs image.
"/init" will be renamed to "/init.stock" and replaced by "/init.squash".
Files and folders need to be accessible before mounting the image will
be still avaliable at their original place. And due to squashfs is
readonly, an overlayfs layer will be created on top of squashfs mount
point, as many dracut module require readwrite access to "/etc" and
"/usr", "init.squash" will ultimately call "/init.stock".
An extra systemd service will be installed. This service will umount all
squashfs related mount points right before switch-root to release
resources properly. This service will not actually do anything if
switch-root is not used.
This is very helpful when mem resource is very limited, like Kdump.
According to my tests, this squash module can help save about 35MB of
memory with 64K page size, or about 15MB with 4K page size on an
ordinary kdump capture routine. This module could also help reduce
memory usage for normal boot up process.
Won't change any behavior if squash module is not enabled.

Lets not unnecessarily rely on __WORDSIZE, which is not clearly specified
by any spec. Use explicit size comparisons if we're not interested in the
WORDSIZE, anyway.

Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/602122
On my system the following initrd-release is generated:
...
VERSION="4 dracut-048 dracut-048"
...
VERSION is not defined in /etc/os-release, so the variable is
concatenated with its previous value:
* "4" comes from the kernel build system since dracut is called from the
kernel install hook ("4" is a major kernel version);
* first "dracut-048" comes from the "systemd-initrd" module;
* second "dracut-048" comes from the "base" module.
