Use swapfile if no extra device is present

We are booting instances outside of rax and they don't always come with
extra devices that can be repurposed for swap. If in that case then
create a swapfile instead.

Note we do not use fallocate as swapon's manpage says this is suboptimal
with the linux kernel's swap implementation.
