Lennart Poettering caf6bd166f homed: default to "btrfs" as fs type in the LUKS backend
Apparently both Fedora and suse default to btrfs now, it should hence be
good enough for us too.

This enables a bunch of really nice things for us, most importanly we
can resize home directories freely (i.e. both grow *and* shrink) while
online. It also allows us to add nice subvolume based home directory
snapshotting later on.

Also, whenever we mention the three supported types, alaways mention
them in alphabetical order, which is also our new order of preference.

configured or assigned the empty string, the default storage is automatically determined: if not

otherwise. Note that the storage selected on the <command>homectl</command> command line always takes
precedence.</para></listitem>
