William Manley c9551dc231 ostree-prepare-root as init: exec init from deployment if run as PID1
This supports running ostree on embedded platforms without an initrd.
Specificially I'm trying to do bringup on an NVidia Tegra based Jetson TK1
dev board.

William Manley 94e50ca5aa tests: Add basic tests for ostree-prepare-root
These tests use unshare and mount to prepare a fake initrd/early boot
directory structure so we can then test ostree-prepare-root.

Things that are tested:

* Running in an initrd environment
* Running without initrd
* /var and /sysroot being mounted correctly
* /usr being mounted read-only

Things not tested (yet):

* Running as init - this could be accomplished by unsharing the pid
  namespace too.
* mounting/unmounting `/proc` if `/proc/cmdline` isn't available
* Persistent overlayfs for `/usr`
* Probably other things

The tests are basic but can be extended in the future as we do more work
on `ostree-prepare-root`.

These tests must be run as root as they require the ability to `mount`
and to `unshare` the mount namespace. Perhaps in the future we can use
user namespaces for this test once they are more widely available.
