PATCH v3 1/1 fs: make it possible to read the filesystem UUID

Some filesystems have a UUID stored in its superblock. To allow using root=UUID=... for the kernel command line we need a way to read-out the filesystem UUID.

changes rfc -> v1:
- make the environment variable an option parameter. If not given, the UUID is printed out. If given, it is stored in the env variable.
- corrected typos
- return error codes

changes v1 -> v2:
- fix return code of do_fs_uuid(..)
- document do_fs_uuid(..)
- implement fs_uuid_unsuported(..) be more consistent with the way other optional functionality works

changes v2 -> v3:
- change ext4fs_uuid(..) to make use of #if .. #else .. #endif construct to get rid of unreachable code
