Removed suggestion to use root dataset as bootfs
The dracut howto proposed to boot from the root dataset of a pool. Apart from this giving problems when booting (as the code seems to expect a child dataset and creates an illegal dataset name when using the root dataset) the technical limitations of the root dataset (among others the inability to rename or destroy through the `zfs` command) resulted in the general consensus to only use it as a container for the datasets in the pool - not as a filesystem itself. Removed the idea to boot from the root dataset.
