[PATCH] expand-on-first-boot: Don't fail when using systemd mount units

[Christian Storm]

By default, resize2fs fails with the error message "Can't check if
filesystem is mounted due to missing mtab file" if the to be resized
filesystem isn't listed in mtab. This is the case, e.g., when using
systemd mount units instead of /etc/fstab.
Hence, selectively disable this safety check by exporting the
environment variable EXT2FS_NO_MTAB_OK=1 [1].
