runuser: new command (derived from su(1))
This command is based on su(1), the differences:
- based on Fedora runuser su(1) patch
- not installed with suid rights
- allowed for root users only
- don't ask for password
- uses PAM session, for example:

su: add --group and --supp-group options
These options allow to specify alternative groups. The command
su(1) has to be executed by root. The implementation is based on
Fedora runuser(1) command.
For example:

# id
uid=0(root) gid=1000(kzak) groups=0(root),985(uuidd),1000(kzak)
non-root user:

This matches more closely with what 'df -h' reports as space available.
Any remaining discrepancy between these 2 tools is a result of precision

libmount: remount does not add entry to mtab file

For the backward compatibility the command mount(8) should to add a

found (because previous mount has been called with -n).

fsck: use less aggressive method to detect mounted devices
We should not care about mountpoints in fsck if a device name
specified on command line, just check if the device is used somewhere
in /proc/self/mountinfo file.
Crazy people who use
fsck /mountpoint
have to specify the mountpoint by the same format as in their fstab --
symlinks canonicalization is not supported.

libmount: rewrite mnt_table_is_fs_mounted() to be less aggressive
The old implementation always canonicalizes target (mountpoint) path.
It's better to postpone this operation until the path is really
necessary (usually it's unnecessary), because readlink() on mountpoint
may trigger automounts.

build-sys: expand paths at make time
autoconf docs about *dir variables (e.g bindir):
... A corollary is that you should not use these variables except in
makefiles...
...you should not rely on AC_CONFIG_FILES to replace bindir and friends
in your shell scripts and other files; instead, let make manage their
replacement.
Looks like a simple case of missing has_arg flag in the "struct
option" initialization for these two options. The patch just adds the
flag. I haven't done thorough testing of the patched code, but it
seems to work OK and it no longer segfaults or tries to dereference a
null pointer.

loopdev.c, test_pager, and get_max_number_of_cpus() are linux-specific.
get_linux_version will only work on Linux, let's introduce
system_supports_ext4_ext2() which assumes that mounting ext2 with ext4
is not supported on non-Linux systems.

lib/tt: always escape '\' to simplify parsing in scripts
The commands echo(1) and printf(1) are usable for escape sequences
decoding, for example
for x in $(findmnt --noheading --raw --output TARGET); do

but it's necessary to escape all '\' chars, otherwise for example \b

findmnt(8) has to use \x5c for the backslash.
