update_engine: use librootdev
Rewrote BootDevice() to call rootdev() with full resolution
enabled. BootDevice() was crawling /proc/cmdline while rootdev()
uses /sys. We should have both /proc and /sys normally so hopefully
this is a minor change to get us to a working updater over dm-verity.
TEST=none yet.
