Previously, the default on linux systems was to not set the hardware
clock to match the system clock during shutdown.
This changes that default to be consistent with *bsd and swclock.
The clock_hctosys and clock_systohc settings really do not have anything
to do with running an ntp daemon, so remove that reference from the
documentation.

We need to set the timezone for the system clock even when we allow the
kernel to set the time.

This commit adds the clock_hctosys option which is used to skip setting
the system clock on boot and can be used with a modern linux kernel
which has the CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS option set to y.
I would like to thank Dimitris Mandalidis for the report and for the
patch to baselayout-1 on which my changes to openrc are based.

Since we only use the result of the device scan to load modules, there is
no point in doing the scan if the kernel doesn't support modules in the
first place.
