Make bash use of fdescfs use optional, disabled by default, and forced off when
disabled.

This allows users to avoid mounting an extra FS that we don't enable by default.

Only display pkg-message with fdescfs instructions when option is enabled.

The late mount option is required for systems with a seperate boot partition
(e.g. systems with an encrypted root partition) where it is impossible for the
fdescfs module to be autoloaded when /boot/kernel isn't available yet. Change
pkg-message accordingly.

Also change 'fdesc' mount point name to 'fdescfs' to simplify things: this way
'mount fdescfs' will work just as fine as 'umount fdescfs'. The less things to
remember - the better it is.

bash does NOT require procfs mounted.

Add an install message about the fact that fdescfs has to be present.
