in order to prepare mksubvolume for use in packages an option to skip modification of /etc/fstab is needed. The idea would be to have a package ship a mount unit instead.

Research direction
Start at the mksubvolume entry point and trace where /etc/fstab is modified. Add an option that skips this modification so packages can provide a mount unit instead; done means the option preserves the existing behavior by default while allowing fstab changes to be omitted.
