initrd: Honor rootfstype and rootflags command-line parameters. 

* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): Honor rootfstype and rootflags
arguments.  Update doc.  Error out in case there is insufficient information
with regard to the root file system.
Restore the behavior of inferring the root device from the root file system
from the operating system in case the root argument is not provided.
* doc/guix.texi (Initial RAM Disk): Document the new command-line parameters.
