William Hubbs 7c31e504d5 build: drop ROOTPREFIX setting 
This change removes the ROOTPREFIX build setting.

If your OS expects to have / mounted earlier in the boot process than
/usr, you will need to pass the appropriate directory settings to "meson
setup" as part of the build process, for example:

$ meson setup \
    --bindir /bin --libdir /lib64 --libexecdir /lib --sbindir /sbin \
    build

also, move plugins  to ```libdir/rc/plugins``` which is the standard
location for plugins accessed via dlopen.

OpenRC README

OpenRC is a dependency-based init system that works with the system-provided init program, normally /sbin/init.

building and installing

OpenRC uses the meson build system, so use the usual methods for this build system to build and install.

Notes

We don't support building a static OpenRC with PAM.

PKG_PREFIX should be set to where packages install to by default.

LOCAL_PREFIX should be set to where user maintained packages are. Only set LOCAL_PREFIX if different from PKG_PREFIX.

rc and rc.shutdown are the hooks from the BSD init into OpenRC.

devd.conf is modified from FreeBSD to call /etc/rc.devd which is a generic hook into OpenRC.

inittab is the same, but for SysVInit as used by most Linux distributions. This can be found in the support folder.

Obviously, if you're installing this onto a system that does not use OpenRC by default then you may wish to backup the above listed files, remove them and then install so that the OS hooks into OpenRC.

If you are installing this onto a system which has separate / and /usr file systems and expects / to be mounted before /usr, you will need to make sure the appropriate pieces are installed on / by passing the appropriate options to "meson setup" as follows:

$ meson setup \
        --bindir /bin --libdir /lib64 --libexecdir /lib --sbindir /sbin \
        build_path
