* In the initrd, automatically mount all available ephemeral disks.

This depends on the EC2 instance type, so we have to probe for them.

# Put /tmp and /var on /ephemeral0, which has a lot more space.
# Unfortunately we can't do this with the `fileSystems' option
# because it has no support for creating the source of a bind
# mount. Also, "move" /nix to /ephemeral0 by layering an AUFS
# on top of it so we have a lot more space for Nix operations.
# Mount all formatted ephemeral disks and activate all swap devices.
# We cannot do this with the ‘fileSystems’ and ‘swapDevices’ options
# because the set of devices is dependent on the instance type
# (e.g. "m1.large" has one ephemeral filesystem and one swap device,
# while "m1.large" has two ephemeral filesystems and no swap
# devices). Also, put /tmp and /var on /disk0, since it has a lot
# more space than the root device. Similarly, "move" /nix to /disk0
# by layering an AUFS on top of it so we have a lot more space for
# Nix operations.
