Rename "osname" → "stateroot"
I never really liked the term "osname". I feel "stateroot" is a *lot* clearer, since the osname/stateroot mostly just holds `/var`. Further it avoids the `os` prefix which is already overloaded. Some of the existing docs already talked about "operating system state", which further reinforces this. There's *lot* more things than this which reference the term "osname", but I don't want to change *everything* yet in this patch in case we decide to do something different - this just gets the highlights. Closes: #794 Approved by: jlebon
