maint: simplify parsing df's output in shell scripts
Avoid complicated and error-prone parsing of df's output via sed(1), cut(1), etc., and instead use df's more modern --output option. * src/ioblksize.h (in a comment): Simplify the extraction of the device name of the mounted file system from df's output. * tests/dd/skip-seek-past-dev.sh: Likewise. * tests/du/2g.sh: Likewise for the 'avail' column here. Also avoid the deprecated use of "tail -NUM". * tests/misc/stat-mount.sh: While at it, remove the determination of the mount point of "." via df(1) plus sed(1) as it is unused since commit v8.5-159-gf57cb37 anyway. Instead, improve this test by verifying that the output of "stat -c%m ." at least starts with a slash '/'.
