Title:
  [MIR] finalrd

Status in finalrd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Availability]

   * universe since cosmic
   * possibly to be uploaded into bionic too

  [Rationale]

   * systemd shutdown procedure allows to execute off-rootfs hooks
   * this small shell script provides trivial infrastructure to prepare the shutdown hooks
   * current intentions for this to be used for:
     - open-iscsi logout on shutdown
     - mdadm wait idle, and stop
     - casper "remove installation media and reboot" sequence

  [Security]

   * This is a shell script, executed on shutdown via systemd unit.
   * It also executes hooks that copy binaries (e.g. mdadm/mdmon) and do actions (e.g. waitclean & stop)
   * the shell script is trivial in size and complexity
   * it calls copy_exec run-parts and ldconfig

  [Quality assurance]

   * small shell script
   * dash -n *.sh executed during build
   * no autopkgtest yet, but one will be added once the open-iscsi & mdadm hooks are in the archive

  [Dependencies]

   * all in main

  [Standards compliance]

   * brand new package, with documentation, and small scope

  [Maintenance]

   * to be maintained by xnox / canonical foundation team

  [Background information]

   * this is the minimal viable shutdown initrd implementation, smaller
  in size than dracut or initramfs-tools
