unmount script not running on AC86U

Nice!

So maybe in the future I can finally properly shut down and have a clean USB file system on boot?

YES! We were finally able to debug a problem specific to the HND routers that was preventing the umount from taking place. So the final solution ended up taking 3 patches.....2 related to logging, and the last one HND specific related to enumerating the attached USB devices/partitions.

I'll get the patches packaged up for Merlin to pick up. @RMerlin

Everyone also needs to send a thanks to @preacher65 who took the time to load multiple test/data collection builds to enable me to figure out what was going on.

Multiple reboots now, without swapoff or umount commands in any scripts, and I get clean drives every time. Thanks for your hard work and perseverance tracking down the fix(es).

Thanks for your dedication preacher65. I'm sorry I wasn't able to contribute more help.

@john9527 I found out what was causing those odd timestamp glitches on reboot, and why fake-hwclock appeared to be running even when I had uninstalled it. The dnscrypt-proxy installation script from @bigeyes0x0 has it's own implementation here:
https://github.com/thuantran/dnscrypt-asuswrt-installer/blob/master/gen/manager starting at line 105
So fake-hwclock itself was a bit superfluous.
I still had dnscrypt-proxy installed at that point in the testing

Thought it might be worth mentioning it for any future debugging.

@preacher65
Thanks for the follow up. It's always nice when all the pieces can be explained (and will file away that piece of info about the dnscrypt addon).
