systemd-tmpfiles has had support for creation of static nodes for some time (to
replace copying nodes from /lib/udev/). Make sure these nodes are created before
udev is started.
Also, drop support for creating static nodes based on modules.devname from
systemd-udevd. This allows it to run witohut CAP_MKNOD, moreover we no longer
need to parse /usr/lib/modules/*/modules.devname.
As a replacement for udevd's functionality, we let kmod generate a tmpfiles.d
fragment based on the correct modules.devname file (see separate patch). We
might want to split the kmod call out into its own unit file and ship that with
kmod instead.
Note: one functional change is that we no longer update the creation time on
already existing device nodes. Is this important? If so, should tmpfiles learn to
do that?
