5a8147479e make-initrd: create reproducible initrds
To achieve reproducible results, `cpio` archive members are added in
sorted order and inodes renumbered.

The `cpio-clean.pl` script is made obsolete by setting mtimes via
`touch` & using `cpio --reproducible`.  Suggested by @dezgeg in
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/21273#issuecomment-268116605.

Note that using `--reproducible` means that initial ramdisk creation now
requires at least `cpio` version 2.12 (released in 2015).

c556a6ea46 * "ensureDir" -> "mkdir -p". "ensureDir" is a rather pointless
function, so obsolete it.

4b27d28701 Porting changes from stdenv-updates into this branch.
This comes from:
svn diff  ^/nixpkgs/trunk/@18255 ^/nixpkgs/branches/stdenv-updates/ > diff
patch -p0 < diff
and then adding into svn all files new from the patch.

trunk@18255 comes from the last time I updated stdenv-updates from trunk.
