Subject: [PATCH] dracut: Introduce --force-drivers parameter and
 force_drivers=+ config option

Which will not only add listed drivers, but also enforce that they are
tried to be loaded at early boot time.

This is needed if drivers which are not autoloaded (e.g. loop and a lot
others) shall get loaded via initramfs.

Cherry-picked from: cea907f6bf2fc97933b59e04f4520ca227251574
Resolves: #1577626
