simplify "symlink name stack"
With well defined and kernel-supplied node names, we no longer need to support a possible stack of conflicting symlinks and node names. Only symlinks with identical names can be claimed by multiple devices. This shrinks the former /dev/.udev/names/ significantly. Also the /dev/{block,char}/MAJ:MIN" links are excluded from the name stack - they are unique and can not conflict.

- o drop support for node names in name stack, support only symlinks
- With well defined and kernel-supplied node names, we no longer need
- to support a possible stack of conflicting symlinks and node names.
- From there on, only symlinks with identical names can be claimed
- by multiple devices. It will simplify the logic a lot and shrink
- /dev/.udev/names/ significantly. Also exclude "*/MAJ:MIN" link names
- from the name stack, they can not conflict.
o remove most NAME= rules (they are provided by the 2.6.31 kernel)
o convert firmware.sh to C
o "udevadm control" commands will only accept the --<command> syntax
