Here is a patch to change the netdev handling in the database and for
the dev.d/ calls. I applies on top of the udevd.patch, cause klibc has
no sysinfo().
o netdev's are also put into our database now. I want this for the
udevruler gui to get a list of all handled devices.
All devices in the db are stamped with the system uptime value at
the creation time. 'udevinfo -d' prints it.
o the DEVPATH value is the key for udevdb, but if we rename
a netdev, the name is replaced in the kernel, so we add
the changed name to the db to match with the remove event.
NOTE: The dev.d/ scripts still get the original name from the
hotplug call. Should we replace DEVPATH with the new name too?
o We now only add a device to the db, if we have successfully created
the main node or successfully renamed a netdev. This is the main part
of the patch, cause I needed to clean the retval passing trough all
the functions used for node creation.
o DEVNODE sounds a bit ugly for netdev's so I exported DEVNAME too.
Can we change the name?
o I've added a UDEV_NO_DEVD to possibly skip the script execution
and used it in udev-test.pl.
udevstart is the same horror now, if you have scripts with logging
statements in dev.d/ it takes minutes to finish, can we skip the
scripts here too?
o The get_device_type() function is changed to be more strict, cause
'udevinfo -a -p /block/' gets a class device for it and tries to
print the major/minor values.
o bugfix, the RESULT value has now a working newline removal and a test
for this case.

Here is a unified version, with all the functions moved to udev_lib.c.
We have a generic function now, to call a given fnct(char *) for every
file ending with a specific suffix, sorted in lexical order. We use it
to execute the dev.d/ files and read our rules.d/ files. The binary
should be a bit smaller now.
I've also changed it, to not do the dev.d/ exec for net devices.
