Isolation of udev code from remaining systemd
This commit is a first attempt to isolate the udev code from the remaining code base. It intentionally does not modify any files but purely delete files which, on a first examination, appear to not be needed. This is a sweeping commit which may easily have missed needed code. Files can be retrieved by doing a checkout from the previous commit: git checkout 2944f347d0 -- <filename>

-
- <para>The <filename>/etc/machine-info</filename> file
- contains machine meta data.</para>
-
- <para>The basic file format of
- <filename>machine-info</filename> is a
- newline-separated list of environment-like
- shell-compatible variable assignments. It is possible
- to source the configuration from shell scripts,
- however, beyond mere variable assignments no shell
- features are supported, allowing applications to read
- the file without implementing a shell compatible
- execution engine.</para>
-
- <para><filename>/etc/machine-info</filename> contains
- meta data about the machine that is set by the user or
- administrator.</para>
-
- <para>Depending on the operating system other
- configuration files might be checked for machine
- information as well, however only as fallback.</para>
-
- <para>You may use
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>hostnamectl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- to change the settings of this file from the command
- line.</para>

- <term><varname>PRETTY_HOSTNAME=</varname></term>
-
- <listitem><para>A pretty
- human-readable UTF8 machine identifier
- string. This should contain a name
- like <literal>Lennart's
- Laptop</literal> which is useful to
- present to the user and does not
- suffer by the syntax limitations of
- internet domain names. If possible the
- internet host name as configured in
- <filename>/etc/hostname</filename>
- should be kept similar to this
- one. Example: if this value is
- <literal>Lennart's Computer</literal>
- an Internet host name of
- <literal>lennarts-computer</literal>
- might be a good choice. If this
- parameter is not set an application
- should fall back to the Internet host
- name for presentation
- purposes.</para></listitem>
