57f89da69a Fix to detect unformatted volumes in CoreOS
The `file` command used here to check whether a device is formatted is not
available for CoreOS. The effect is that the mounter tries to mount an
unformatted volume which fails. This makes it quite tedious to use persistent
volumes in CoreOS.

This patch replaces the `file` command with `lsblk` which is available in
CoreOS. I checked that it's also available on RHEL, Debian, Ubuntu and SLES.

ab0258f259 Support formatting and mounting GCE PD without 'safe_format_and_mount'
The GCE PD plugin uses safe_format_and_mount found on standard GCE images:

https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/compute-image-packages/blob/master/google-startup-scripts/usr/share/google/safe_format_and_mount

On custom images where this is not available pods fail to format and
mount GCE PDs. This patch uses linux utilities in a similar way to the
safe_format_and_mount script to format and mount the GCE PD and AWS EBC
devices. That is first attempt a mount. If mount fails try to use file to
investigate the device. If 'file' fails to get any information about
the device and simply returns "data" then assume the device is not
formatted and format it and attempt to mount it again.
