Configuration associated with a specific revision is stored in a folder
named <revision>-etc. In a similar spirit, add /ostree/current-etc, pointing
to the -etc folder for the revision named by current. This allows
easy editing of configuration from the host distribution, and allows
diffing current/etc and current-etc for configuration changes.

This command regenerates kernel-dependent files. It is meant to
be run after kernel upgrades in the host distribution, to keep
the ostree installation running, and attempts to figure out the
right version automatically (and without changing the ostree checkout)
As the manual page doesn't say, but the in-code kernel documentation
shows, hardlinking for normal users can fail for a variety of
reasons (including very common situations such as non regular file
or non writable file), if the owner of the file does not match
the user linking (e.g. when checking out a shadow repo with a root-
owned master).
If that happens, fail back silently to copying instead of aborting
the whole operation.

Common code was duplicating the command name and not shifting
arguments properly, which thus required the builtins to be aware
of it, instead of being treated like subcommands.
