Magisk v 16.4

• [Daemon] Fix startup Magisk Manager APK installation on Android P
• [MagiskPolicy] Switch from AOSP u:r:su:s0 to u:r:magisk:s0 to prevent conflicts
• [MagiskPolicy] Remove unnecessary sepolicy rules to reduce security penalty
• [Daemon] Massive re-design /sbin tmpfs overlay and daemon startup
• [MagiskInit] Remove magiskinit_daemon, the actual magisk daemon (magiskd) shall handle everything itself
• [Daemon] Remove post-fs stage as it is very limited and also will not work on A/B devices; replaced with a simple mount in post-fs-data, which will run even before the daemon is started
