libelf: add a x86 specific test failure
It's caused by a minor GAS issue, which should be fixed in
binutils-2.40.

creatingfilesystem: Refine the condition where a FS is needed
For example, a swap partition does not contain any FS.  And, if you want
to clone a partition, you can use

    dd if=/dev/<old-partition> of=/dev/<new-partition>

then it's unnecessary to create a FS on new-partition before operation.
This is sometimes faster than creating a new FS, mounting both
partition, then "cp -av" if the old-partition contains many small files.

16cd09633e Adjust instructions for /dev/shm when creating virtual filesystems.
Some host create /dev/shm as a tmpfs.  Some have is as
a symlink to a location in another directory.  This
change handles both cases.

The change to the sysV bootscripts now creates /dev/shm
as a separate tmpfs from /run.  This makes LFS sysV and
systemd versions treat /dev/shm the same.

cleanup: rephrase description for .la removal
Don't emphasis "static library" at all, to prevent anyone from thinking
"I need to use static libraries so I'll keep these .la files".  And warn
that .la files are known to break BLFS packages.

afterlfs: several fixes
- Use <emphasis role="bold"> for bold, instead of <command>.
- Remove "X window" as some graphical environments are Wayland-based.
- "Full BLFS" -> "BLFS", and "partial BLFS" -> "basic LFS" (I guess some
  content is copied from Basic BLFS).
