Owen W. Taylor ff6883ca06 ostree-remount: mount a tmpfs on /var if necessary so /var is read-write 
/var needs to be read-write for a functioning system. Various
systemd services will fail to start if /var is read-only. After we
remount /var (or if we skip remounting /var because / is read-only),
if /var is still readonly, mount a tmpfs file system on /var.

While this isn't strictly part of ostree, keeping it here makes sense
because it keeps twiddling around with the /var mount in one place
for easier coordination and maintenance. This will likely need updating
if systemd gains better support for a readonly root filesystem.

README.md

OSTree is a tool for managing bootable, immutable, versioned filesystem trees. While it takes over some of the roles of tradtional "package managers" like dpkg and rpm, it is not a package system; nor is it a tool for managing full disk images. Instead, it sits between those levels, offering a blend of the advantages (and disadvantages) of both.
