Those files may easily accumulate in large quantities, to the point
where just listing the /etc/lvm/archive directory takes a long time.
This affects every lvm command call, so every VM start/stop.
Those archive files are rarely useful, as Qubes do multiple LVM
operations at each VM startup, so older data is really out of date very
quickly.
Automatically remove files in /etc/lvm/archive older than one day.

The \0 after error code prevent logging error message which is after it.
This change clobber qubesd-query exit code with tr exit code (mostly 0),
but this is a good thing - failing qubes-suspend service does not
prevent the suspend, but do prevent the stop hooks being called, which
for example breaks time synchronization or may leave some domains
paused.

dnf4 (Fedora 29) does not like final coma in --exclude option. If it's
there, the whole --exclude is ignored on misinterpreted (as one long
package name?).
Use the same mechanism as VMs - first it's compatible with Admin API (in
contrary to flag files); second it ease handling it.
Migrate old setting on package upgrade.
While qvm-move and qvm-copy cannot work in dom0, their
absence is confusing. Thus, stub tools that output message
informing the user that these tools are unavailable and
qvm-move-to-vm/qvm-copy-to-vm should be used instead.

Fix current EFI boot dir discovery script.
Also, adjust scripts order:
50-dracut generates initramfs in /boot/(efi/)?/$MACHINE_ID/.../initrd
80-grub2 copies it to /boot/initramfs-....img
90-xen-efi copies it to /boot/efi/EFI/qubes/initramfs-....img
Make the above order explicit, rather than relying on xen sorted later
than grub2.

Remove also EFI version of BootLoader Specification dirs. This will:
- really force to re-generate initramfs during installation, after all
relevant configs are updated; previously, dracut (called by anaconda
through kernel-install) refuse to update already existing
/boot/efi/.../initrd file.
- save some precious space in /boot/efi
FixesQubesOS/qubes-issues#3234
If no updates are available, display some notification about that (when
GUI mode requested). Otherwise user has no idea what happened (update
failed? still doing something?).

During installation, /usr/lib/kernel/install.d/50-dracut.install
generate initramfs in $BOOT_DIR_ABS. It is important to use that one,
even if there is one in /boot/initramfs-*.img already, because it was
generated later and contains all required config files (including
keyboard layout for entering LUKS passphrase).
This fixes d1f3be0eed "kernel-install:
avoid creating initramfs multiple times".

On LVM thin it is easy to fill the pool if fstrim (or 'discard' mount
option) isn't used from time to time. Enable fstrim.timer by default,
which will do fstrim once a week.
There are multiple places where initramfs can be created:
- /boot/iniramfs-*.img
- /boot/$MACHINE_ID/.../initrd (unused on Qubes, but created by Fedora
scripts)
- /boot/efi/EFI/.../initramfs-*.img
Do not generate all of those from scratch, but try to reuse existing
image (if exists). Since one dracut call may last even 5 minutes, this
change should greatly reduce installation time.
