In some cases (for example if only one mount argument is given) may be
mount request ambivalent:
# mount /foo
and fstab:
/dev/sda5 /foo rw 0 0
/foo /bar bind 0 0
the new options allows to be more explicit
# mount --target /foo (mounts /dev/sda5)
# mount --source /foo (binds /foo to /bar)
It's possible to use the options together
# mount --source /dev/sda2 --target /home

mount: propagation flags (--make-* or --bind options) are mutually exclusive

We have to be careful with "none" or another dummy sources for pseudo
filesystems. These strings should be canonicalized or compared as a
paths.
The function is not exported by library API.

Commit ce433404 introduced the change, which causes something like mount -i
<user-mount-path> to break which worked well before util-linux-2.21, now it
gives message 'mount: only root can use "--internal-only" option' when that
shouldn't be the case when it is already in fstab.

New return codes:
0 : all mounted (or all ignored)
64 : some mounted, some failed
32 : all failed
Note that already mounted or ignored (filtered out by -t or -O)
filesystems don't affect the final return code.
The original mount(8) returns 0 instead of 64, so the situation
"some mounted, some failed" cannot be detected.

well, this is free-before-exit, but let's use mount(8) as test
application for libmount and keep it without leaks.

This fixes a display bug in the new mount wherein a psuedofs existing in
$PWD by name will be resolved and shown as a real mount point.
$ cd /tmp; mkdir nfsd; mount | grep nfsd
/tmp/nfsd on /proc/fs/nfsd type nfsd (rw,relatime)

Now we have three versions of the mount(8) utility
* old mount(8)
--enable-mount [default]
* old mount(8) linked with libmount
This is this is necessary for systems without mtab file.
--enable-libmount-mount
- new mount(8)
This is completely new pure-libmount based mount(8).
--enable-new-mount
