Adjusting what fstypes df displays

[Tobin Davis]

I agree with being able to customize this and Bryce's solution is easy to
work with (either profile.d or a df config in /etc).  We use tmpfs to
create ramdisks on the fly as part of our video analytics solution (megh.com),
and need to monitor the tmpfs we create.
