Version bump.

~~~~
(since 038)

- DRACUT_PATH can now be used to specify the PATH used by dracut
  to search for binaries instead of the default
    /usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin
  This should be set in the distribution config file
    /usr/lib/dracut/dracut.conf.d/01-dist.conf
- add "--loginstall <DIR>" and loginstall="<DIR>" options
  to record all files, which are installed from the host fs
- "rd.writable.fsimg" - support for read/write filesystem images
- "rd.route" kernel command line parameter added
- "--install-optional" and install_optional_items added
- torrent support for live images
    root=live:torrent://example.com/liveboot.img.torrent
  and generally added as a download handler
- disable microcode, if the kernel does not support it
- speed up ldconfig_paths()
- more ARM modules
- fixed inst*() functions and "-H" handling
- fixed bridge setup
- added --force-drivers parameter and force_drivers=+ config option
  to enforce driver loading at early boot time
- documented "iso-scan/filename" usage in grub
- various bugfixes

+
+It is required for Gentoo which moves udev from / to /usr and supports
+both /lib/udev and /usr/lib/udev for compatibility with other packages.
+
+Credits go to Alexander Tsoy <alexander@tsoy.me>.

+To avoid need of rebuild after udev update/downgrade let udevdir= be set
