zdev: Integrate firmware auto-configuration with dracut

Add a dracut hook that applies firmware-provided I/O configuration data
as auto-configuration during boot. This way, all I/O devices configured
by DPM are automatically brought online without further user
interaction.

This mechanism is active by default. It can be deactivated by specifying
the following parameter on the kernel command line:

  rd.zdev=no-auto
