Description of the change

This branch adds support for initramfs-tools in snappy to mount the new squashfs/snapfs based os and kernel snaps. It also keeps compatibility with the old snappy_ab partition layout so that we can have a smooth transition and easier testing.

there is one line that makes me itch a bit ....
after we mount $rootmnt from $writable_mnt we move $writable_mnt underneath $rootmnt, so we are effectively pulling out the floor under ourselves.
while i'm not sure what the implications of this actually are (since run-init makes everything above $rootmnt invisible anyway once we switch to the real root) I wonder if we shouldnt use --bind instead of --move (thats line 197 below)

mount --move "$writable_mnt" "${rootmnt}/writable"
