fix(dracut): allow to set persistent policy based on /dev/mapper device names
Currently, dracut only allows to configure the persistent policy to address
disks and partitions using any directory name found in /dev/disk, but there is
no defined way to set the default policy based on /dev/mapper device names. So,
for example, if the persistent policy is set by the distribution in any
configuration file, the user cannot set the default if he wants to.
The current workaround is to set persistent_policy="" in a conf file or pass
--persistent-policy " " (white space) as an argument. This patch aims to
establish a specific value for this case.
