logger: add hostname to rfc3164 message
This makes the obsolete protocol a little bit more compliant with the
internet standard, but few should care now when we have rfc5424 support,
and rfc3164 feels broken. For example it requires hostname to be not
fully qualified, which is hard to understand, and should make users to
prefer the new protocol.

agetty: Reprompt and reprint /etc/issue when asked
Add an 'agetty --reload' command which asks all running agetty
commands to display their prompts again.
Several of the /etc/issue escape codes such as \4 and \S depend on
variable data which can change after the agetty prompt is displayed.
This can cause stale data to be displayed when a user looks at a VT,
especially in cases of DHCP racing with system start up.
We never want this to occur once the user has started typing a
user name. So we detect when the user starts typing, after which
no further reprompting occurs after that point.

various: erase all traces of the long-obsolete xiafs

libmount: don't use /{proc,ext}/filesystems when more fs types specified

between wanted (by -t specified) filesystems.
Summary about -t:
* "mount -t foo" mount(2) with "foo" type
* "mount -t foo,bar" try mount(2) with "foo" or "bar"
* "mount -t foo,auto" try mount(2) with "foo" or ask libblkid for
the type
* "mount -t nofoo,bar" try types from /{etc,proc}/filesystems, but
exclude "foo" and "bar"
Note that more filesystems may be specified in fstab (as comma
delimited list). The stuff from fstab is always interpreted as list
and never as a pattern ("no" prefix makes no sense in fstab).

swapon: share get_swap_prober() with swaplabel to print uuid and label
The swapon(8) listing was almost complete, apart from label and uuid.
This change moves the code from swaplabel(8) to shared scope to be used
for printouts in other swap commands, such as swapon.
Adding this feature to lsblk(8) was a consideration, but lsblk is not
interested of swapfiles, so the swapon seems like a better option to add
this information.
