package/dracut: switch to dracut-ng and bump to version 110

Bump dracut package source to the newest version of the project,
dracut-ng, release 110.

The original dracut project is now inactive for a long period of time.
Dracut community has transitioned to the dracut-ng fork to continue
development. The migration ensures regular updates for security and bug
fixing, a better support of modern systemd features and kernel
requirements. It also allows alignment with major Linux distributions
(Fedora, Arch Linux, Gentoo), and other open source projects (Yocto).

Changes made :
- dracut.mk: change source to dracut-ng 110
- dracut.hash: adapt hash to dracut-ng 110
- dracut.mk: fix unused systemd symbolic links build error
- Config.in: adapt fs/cpio/Config.in to mention dracut-ng upgrade
- Config.in.host: adapt dracut Config.in.host to mention dracut-ng upgrade
- .checkpackageignore: remove 001-dracut.sh-don-t-unset-LD_PRELOAD.patch

Patch removals and additions :

- Removed 0001-dracut.sh-don-t-unset-LD_PRELOAD.patch:
Upstream dracut-ng removed the 'unset LD_PRELOAD' instruction, making this
patch obsolete.

- Added 0001-fix-functions-prevent-find_binary-from-dropping-last.patch:
Dracut-ng introduced a regression on non-merged-usr architectures.
This was traced down to a bug in find_binary() where a `while read`
loop drops the last PATH element if the string does not end with a colon.
This local patch fixes the Bash EOF read behavior.
Submitted upstream: https://github.com/dracut-ng/dracut-ng/pull/2416

All dracut related runtime tests, including non-merged-usr, have been
locally tested and passed successfully using the reference Buildroot
docker container.

Build an additional initramfs using dracut-ng. This only
contains a subset of the rootfs, as determined by the

This can be useful to create a recovery system, for instance.
