in an initramfs, then transition to the real root filesystem. Useful
for systems requiring early boot tasks like LUKS unlock, LVM activation,
or network boot before mounting the real root.
Adds INIT_CMD_SWITCH_ROOT API command, `initctl switch-root` subcommand,
and HOOK_SWITCH_ROOT plugin hook point. The implementation gracefully
stops services, moves virtual filesystems (/dev, /proc, /sys, /run) to
the new root, deletes initramfs contents to free memory, then execs the
new init as PID 1.
See GitHub Discussion #292 for background.
Instead of the revert in c9fe9afa, we restore HOOK_BASFFS_UP to its
proper place at the end of fs_mount_all(). For this to not cause any
regressions we add a new hook, HOOK_SVC_PLUGIN, and update all plugins
that call service_register() to run at the new hook.
This will cause regressions for external 3rd party plugins that rely on
HOOK_BASEFS_UP to be called at its previous postion. Nevertheless, this
is the proper fix to the problem.

This change adds support for running hook scripts at two new hook points
during the shutdown process:
- HOOK_SVC_DN: after all services and non-reserved processes have been
killed (and collected)
- HOOK_SYS_DN: after all file systems have been unmounted, *just prior*
to Finit calling reboot() to shut down or reboot the system
See doc/plugins.md for details and an example.

Due to an unfortunate name clash with the DirectFB project LiTE, the
libite (-lite) project had to change its header namespace from
lite/*.h -> libite/*.h
This patch adds support for the new namepace in Finit, triggered by the
define _LIBITE_LITE, from the .pc file read by pkg-config. This should
only be needed on systems that install libite without the compatibility
symlink lite -> libite/ in the staging include directory.

An operator wanting to monitor processes started by Finit could use the
kernel ftrace framework. E.g. execsnoop in perf-tools.

This gives the operator a way to add a post-mount script, e.g. to peform
a 2nd stage mount or mount preparations, before the bootmisc.so plugin
and others run in hook/mount/all

The file plugin.h is installed to $prefix/include and used by external
plugins. Therefore it must not include, or depend on, features set by
the configure script in config.h

The SVC_RECONF, SVC_LOST, SVC_START, and RUNLEVEL_CHANGE hooks are not
one-shot, they are also not regular conditions since there exist no
mechanism to reset them from flux.
One idea was to turn them into actions, but the lost + start hooks need
to be called multiple times per trigger, e.g. `initctl reload`, which
turned out to be non-trivial to implement right now.
Therefore, for (at least) the Finit v3.1 release these conditions have
been disabled ("nop") and ignored by Finit. Only actual C-style plugins
will be called.

The /lib/finit/plugins path is as of this patch not longer possible to
change. Use --prefix or --libdir instead to change the leading path.

This patch implements support for calling run/task jobs on the built-in
`HOOK_*` points in Finit. To map each HOOK point to a condition a new
classification was made, as shown in plugin.h and in the example below.
task <hook/mount/root> /sbin/attachubi.sh # run in parallel with other tasks/services
run <hook/net/up> /sbin/dosomething.sh # run in sequence with other commands
Please note, only rudimentary tested.
