aaedfb35dd Change startup procedure
Current startup procedure works on an assumption that we will
deal with asynchronously appearing devices in asynchronous way
(udev rules) and synchronous events in the system (systemd units)
won't interfere. If we would break anything (mounts) we would just
take those units and restart them. This tactic was working as long
as resetting systemd units took reasonable time.

As hackish as it sounds it worked in all systems that the software
has been validated on. Unfortunately it stopped working because
of *.mount units taking MUCH longer time to restart even on
mainstream OSes, so it's time to change.

This change implements open-cas systemd service which will wait
synchronously with systemd bootup process for all required Open CAS
devices to start. If they don't we fail the boot process just as
failing mounts would. We also make sure that this process takes place
before any mounts (aside from root FS and other critical FS's) are
even attempted. Now opencas-mount-utility can be discarded.

To override this behaviour on per-core basis you can specify
lazy_startup=true option in opencas.conf.

fa61d2d3a6 utils: Makefile: Rename "default" target to "all"
As "all" target is supported by upper level Makefile, and target
names are passed to subdirectory Makefiles, all of them need to
support "all" target as well. Rename default target for simplicity.
