Blivet mounting & fstab

[Jan Safranek]

I briefly checked Blivet and it is currently calls cmdline mount(8).
There exists libmount library [1], which could be used to streamline the
mounting without forking. Unfortunately, it does not have Python
bindings yet, but that can be solved.

I had a brief chat with libmount author (Karel Zak, on cc:) and it would
be possible to add fstab editing to the library, so Blivet would get it
for free.

David, what do you think about? I know, Blivet can mount stuff even now
and using a library wouldn't add immediate benefit, but fstab editing
could be worth checking.
