[PATCH] mdadm: autodetect being run in an initramfs

Key off of the existance of /etc/initrd-release as an indicator that
mdadm is running in early userspace and set the __offroot flag. This
allows the same udev-based assembly rules to be valid both off and on
root and, moreover, will propagate to mdmon, should it need to be
started.
