[openSUSE] improve JeOS compatibility re ROOT label. Fixes #2062 #2063

To enable the use of btrfs based openSUSE JeOS images we required a change from our default root pool label expectation (enforced default where non found) to be in line with the default found, and depended upon (fstab mount by label) in these JeOS images.

Summary of changes:

  • Change 'no root pool label' auto label mechanism to use 'ROOT'; in line with btrfs based openSUSE JeOS images.
  • Provide a mechanism to migrate existing source installs over to this new default: prior default was 'system'.

Fixes #2062

Testing.
An existing openSUSE (Tumbleweed) source based install was recompiled in place and found to successfully self migrate from a 'system' root pool label to the new default of 'ROOT'. Note that source based installs are expected to be recompiled and there are, as yet, no rockstor rpms distributed for openSUSE.

Summary of changes:
- Change 'no root pool label' auto label mechanism to use 'ROOT'; in
line with btrfs based openSUSE JeOS images.
- Provide a mechanism to migrate existing source installs over to this
new default: prior default was 'system'.

Merging to aid in our openSUSE development effort as it enables us to use otherwise unaltered JeOS images. Also, given this is potentially a breaking change for those developing on openSUSE I'd like to get it in sooner rather than later.
