init: add a workaround for wmware vmware scsi host has issues with coldplugging, which causes nlplug-findfs to not find the device withing excpected time. We work around this by detect vmware and manually load ata_piix and mptspi drivers early, so they are already loaded when nlplug-findfs runs. ref https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/issues/8476
