/dev: mount /dev/pts and /dev/shm during early boot
This has two purposes: 1) it allows boot services like bootlogd (that needs /dev/pts) to be started very early in boot, and 2) by setting the standard options in rc.sysinit rather than in fstab we have control over them and can easily integrate them with other packages and make adjustments to fix bugs. This brings /dev/{pts,shm} into line with how we handle /dev, /proc, /sys and /run. With this patch /dev/{pts,shm} can (and probably should) be removed from the default fstab file, and fstab should only contain entries for the mountpoints the user has specified during install, like /boot, /home and /var. It will now be possible to boot a working system with an empty fstab. If /dev/{pts,shm} is in fstab the mountoptions there will take precedenc over the standard ones.
