dracut does not support booting from an encrypted ZFS volume

[Benjamin Drung]

Dracut does not support booting from an encrypted ZFS volume. Steps to reproduce:

1. In a VM install Ubuntu 24.10 with an encrypted ZFS volume
2. Install dracut afterwards: sudo apt install dracut zfs-dracut
3. Add rd.shell to the boot arguments
4. Reboot

The boot will fail:

```
dracut-pre-mount[817]: Warning: ZFS: Key /run/keystore/rpool/system.key for rpool hasn't appeared. Trying anyway.
dracut-pre-mount[863]: Key load error: Failed to open key material file: No such file or directory
[FAILED] Failed to mount sysroot.mount - /sysroot.
```

The initrd should have asked for the password, but it did not.

I tried 103-1ubuntu2 with the patch from https://github.com/dracut-ng/dracut-ng/pull/529 and the result is the same.

If you supply the key in the initrd (e.g. with /etc/cryptab), it should work.

For the "should have asked for the password", `--add bash` is likely a workaround. See https://github.com/zbm-dev/zfsbootmenu/issues/690
