feat(zfspv): mounting the root filesystem to remove the dependency on the Operating system (#204)

* feat(zfspv): mounting the root filesystem to remove the dependency on the OS

We are mounting the individual library to run the zfs
binary inside the ZFS-LocalPV daemonset. The problem with this
is each OS has different sets of libraries. We need to have different
Operator yamls for different OS versions.

Here we are mounting the root directory inside the ZFS-LocalPV daemonset Pod
which does chroot to this path and run the command. As all the libraries will
be available which are present on the host inside the Pod, so we don't need to mount each
library here and also it will work for all the Operating systems.

To be on the safe side, we are mounting the host's root directory
as Readonly filesystem.
