rdcore: Juggle physical root versus deployment root

This is prep for supporting composefs, where the physical root
is distinct from the deployment root.  Specifically for the LUKS
case, we can find `/etc/crypttab` only in the deployment root.

Otherwise, we suffix the passed path (usually `/sysroot`) that
was mounted in the initramfs with `/sysroot` to find the physical
root.
