mountlist: remove dependency on libmount
* lib/mountlist.c (read_file_system_list): Parse /proc/self/mountinfo
directly, rather than depending on libmount, which has many
dependencies due to its dependence on libselinux, as detailed at:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2015-01/msg00063.html
Note we restrict this to __linux__ as that's probably where this
interface will remain. If ever porting, it would be best
to first pull the makedev() wrapper from coreutils to a gnulib module.
Note also we don't add a getline dependency to the mountlist module,
as all Linux versions are sufficient.

The following packages are needed by maintainers for using 'gnulib-tool'. In general, Gnulib prefers the latest stable version of each package, but in some cases it also supports older versions; this caters to commonly-used software distributions that may lag behind the latest stable package. Support for older versions is not guaranteed, though, and the version numbers in the following list may be incremented at any time. * A C runtime, compiler, linker, etc. + Mandatory. Using the platform's native 'cc' gives good portability exposure, but you can also use GCC 2.95 or newer. + GCC Homepage: http://gcc.gnu.org/ + Download: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gcc/ ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gcc/ * A 'make' utility. + Mandatory. Using the platform's native 'make' gives good portability exposure for in-tree builds, but VPATH builds require GNU Make 3.79.1 or newer. + GNU Make Homepage: http://www.gnu.org/software/make/ + Download: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/ ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/ * GNU M4 1.4.5 or newer. + 1.4.5 or newer is mandatory, but 1.4.9 or newer is recommended. + Homepage: http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/ + Download: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/ ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/m4/ * Autoconf 2.59 or newer. + Mandatory. + Homepage: http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/ + Download: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/autoconf/ ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/autoconf/ * Automake 1.9.6 or newer. + Mandatory. + Homepage: http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/ + Download: http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake/ ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake/ * A shell + Mandatory.
