tmpfiles: create subvolumes for "v", "q", and "Q" only if / is a subvolume
It's not a good idea to create subvolumes for parts of the OS tree (such as /home, or /var) if the root directory is not a subvolume too. We shouldn't assume control of "heavier" objects such as subvolumes, if the originating object (the root directory) is a "light-weight" object, i.e. a plain directory. Effectively this means that chroot() environments that are run on a plain directory do not have to deal with problems around systemd creating subvolumes that cannot be removed with a simple "rm" anymore. However, if the chroot manager creates a proper subvolume for such an environment it will also get further subvolumes placed in there, under the assumption that the manager understands the concept of subvolumes in that case.
