Sometimes read returns fewer bytes than requested. read() only read at
most 0x7ffff000 bytes.

1. A non-empty archive can still be generated, if a dev nodes
file is specified; and
2. cpio itself handles the case of an empty archive
(containing only the trailer entry), for example:
echo -n | cpio -oc | cpio -it

Move all the error reporting over to err()/errx() rather than the
current mix of errx(), fprintf()+exit(), and the homebrew die().
Also make the two "read all the lines in the file" loops match, by
copying the newer getline() style into the older fgets() loop.

error() is a glibc extension that is not available in musl libc.
err() is a BSD extension, but is present in glibc, musl libc and
bionic.

Let mkbootfs create a list of dev nodes and directories, based on a
file:
$ mkbootfs -n node_file initramfs/ > initramfs.cpio
This file is following the same format as the kernel usr/ cpio list:
$ cat node_file
# My device nodes
dir dev 0755 0 0
nod dev/null 0600 0 0 c 1 5

Right now, it just prints "no directories to process". There is also no
indication anywhere about the availability of the -f and -d flags.
Also took the opportunity to perform small quality-of-life improvements,
like updating error messages, hiding internal functions.
