Description

Currently, 'altroot' is only set when zpool create sees '-R'. It should be also set if -o altroot= is used.

Without this change, e.g zpool create -o altroot=/install_target usr would fail if /usr is not empty.

The patch is a very simple two liner.

Test case:

zpool create -o altroot=/somedir [an existing non-empty directory in /] [some device]
