When running distcheck, the systemd system-generator and bash-completion
scripts are installed in absolute paths (/usr and /lib) as looked up
from their pkg-config files. This breaks distcheck. Use a
${prefix}-relative path for both of them when configuring for distcheck.

If one wants to set up a mount for `/var` in `/etc/fstab`, it
won't be mounted since `ostree-prepare-root` set up a bind mount for
`/var` to `/sysroot/ostree/$stateroot/var`, and systemd will take
the already extant mount over what's in `/etc/fstab`.
There are a few options to fix this, but what I settled on is parsing
`/etc/fstab` in a generator (exactly like `systemd-fstab-generator` does),
except here we look for an explicit mount for `/var`, and if one *isn't* found,
synthesize the default ostree mount to the stateroot. Another nice property is
that if an admin creates a `var.mount` unit in `/etc` for example, that will
also override our mount.
Note that today ostree doesn't hard depend on systemd, so this behavior only
kicks in if we're built with systemd *and* libmount support (for parsing
`/etc/fstab`). I didn't really test that case though.
Initially I started writing this as a "pure libc" program, but at one point
decided to use `libostree.so` to find the booted deployment. That didn't work
out because `/boot` wasn't necessarily mounted and hence we couldn't find the
bootloader config. A leftover artifact from this is that the generator code
calls into libostree via the "cmd private" infrastructure. But it's an easy way
to share code, and doesn't hurt.

This is necessary for "make distcheck" on Travis-CI.

This simplifies the build system by removing the need for
`libswitchroot-mountutil.la`.

If the `--with-static-compiler=musl-gcc` configure flag is given.
ostree-prepare-root can be used as init in a system without a populated
/lib. To support this use case we need to link statically as we will be
unable to locate libc.so at run time if it's not installed in /lib.
We support building ostree-prepare-root with a different compiler to the
rest of ostree so we can use musl rather than glibc. This reduces the size
of the executable significantly: from ~700K -> ~30K. We have to use
`_SCRIPTS` here to get autotools to install this as an executable but
without generating rules to make it itself which we have specified
manually.
See https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-utils/2007-01/msg00007.html
for advice on using autotools in this manner.

Why not to use libexecdir?
Because this directory does not exist on some distros or paths
between distros varies. There are several reasons why a well
known path is prefered, for example when generating a kernel
command line:
init=${ostree}/usr/lib/ostree-boot/ostree-prepare-root
In addition this saves us some typing in a console when wanting
to access the "ostree" cmd line.

Originally, the idea was that clients would replicate "OS/tree"s from
a build server, but we'd run things like "ldconfig" on the client.
This was to allow adding e.g. the nVidia binary driver.
However, the triggers were the only thing in the system at the moment
that really had expected knowledge of the *contents* of the OS, like
the location of binaries.
For now, it's architecturally cleaner if we move the burden of
triggers to the tree builder (e.g. gnome-ostree or RPM). Eventually
we may want OSTree to assist with this type of thing (perhaps
something like RPM %ghost), but this is the right thing to do now.
See https://wiki.gnome.org/OSTree/DeploymentModel2
This is a major rework of the on-disk filesystem layout, and the boot
process. OSTree now explicitly supports upgrading kernels, and these
upgrades are also atomic.
The core concept of the new model is the "deployment list", which is
an ordered list of bootable operating system trees. The deployment
list is reflected in the bootloader configuration; which has a kernel
argument that tells the initramfs (dracut) which operating system root
to use.
Invidiual notable changes that come along with this:
1) Operating systems should now come with their etc in usr/etc; OSTree
will perform a 3-way merge at deployment time, and place etc in
the actual root. This avoids the need for a bind mount, and is
just a lot cleaner.
2) OSTree no longer bind mounts /root, /home, and /tmp. It is expected
that the the OS/ has these as symbolic links into /var.
At the moment, OSTree only supports managing syslinux; other
bootloader backends will follow.
Linux creates a copy of the soure mount flags when creating a bind
mount; if the source is read-only, then the bind mount is.
The problem is that systemd will remount the rootfs read/write, but
each mount (/home, /var etc.) will still be read-only. We need to
remount every bind mount except for /usr to read-write too.
This only "worked" with the old ostree-switch-root because it
effectively force mounted the rootfs read-write always, ignoring the
"ro" flag.
Rather than attempting to hack up the "switch-root" functionality of
systemd, this binary allows us to simply prepare the root before we
switch into it.
Merge the code from ostree-init; now that we're back to targeting an
initramfs (dracut), we don't need to statically link the binary, so
there's no strong reason to have a separate module.
