For systemd, we create a simple /etc/fstab with only an entry for /, as
systemd otherwise automatically mounts what it needs where it needs it.

systemd does not like that the content of /var be symlinks to /tmp,
especially journald that starts before /tmp is mounted, and thus the
journal files are hidden from view, which causes quite a bit of fuss...

Instead, move the current /var to a sysv-only skeleton.

systemd at install time will create the /var content it needs, so we
just create an empty /var for systemd.

systemd would create /home and /srv at runtime if they are missing, but
it is better to create them right now, to simplify supporting systemd on
a RO filesystem in the (near) future.
