Allow system.devices to be automatically created on first boot

This is intended for image-based OS deployments, where an installer
is not run on the target machine to create a custom system.devices.

Instead, the OS image preparation can configure the image so that
lvm will automatically create system.devices for the root VG on
first boot.

image preparation:
- create empty file /etc/lvm/devices/auto-import-rootvg
- remove any existing /etc/lvm/devices/system.devices
- enable lvm-devices-init.path and lvm-devices-init.service

on first boot:
- udev triggers vgchange -aay --autoactivation event <rootvg>
- vgchange activates LVs in the root VG
- vgchange finds finds auto-import-rootvg, and no system.devices,
  so it creates /run/lvm/lvm-devices-init
- lvm-devices-init.path is run when /run/lvm/lvm-devices-init
  appears, and triggers lvm-devices-init.service
- lvm-devices-init.service runs vgimportdevices --rootvg --auto
- vgimportdevices finds auto-import-rootvg, and no system.devices,
  so it creates system.devices containing PVs in the root VG,
  and removes /etc/lvm/devices/auto-import-rootvg and
  /run/lvm/lvm-devices-init
