Speed up initial /rw setup
On first VM's boot, setup-rwdev.sh script create filesystem on
/dev/xvdb. But it does so only after checking if /dev/xvdb is really
empty, by comparing it to /dev/zero. Speed up reads from /dev/zero bu
using larger blocks (default of head - 8k, instead of explicit 512).
This speed up the check over 5 times.

init: fix issues found by shellcheck in init scripts
Most of them are missing quotes, `` -> $(), and -o/-a usage in
conditions. Also add few directives disabling checks where were too
verbose.

Use online resize2fs, and run filesystem check only when needed
When trying offline resize2fs, it require running fsck first, which
takes time, especially on large volumes. And in most cases, resize2fs
will notice that no action is needed - after wasting some time on fsck.
To remedy this, use resize2fs in online mode (on mounted filesystem).
And drop fsck call if it fails (filesystem is already mounted
read-write, running fsck isn't good idea).

But do not remove fsck call completely - still call it, but without '-f'
flag, so it run actual check only when really needed (unclean shutdown,
last check far in the past etc).
