I am pretty sure we shouldn't carry history sections in man pages, since it's
very hard to keep them correctly updated, the current ones are very
out-of-date, and they tend to make APIs appear unnecessarily complex.

This completes the set of man pages for sd-event and contains some minor
other fixes for other man pages too.
The sd_event_set_name(3) man page is renamed to
sd_event_source_set_description(3), which is the correct name of the
concept today.

This did not really work out as we had hoped. Trying to do this upstream
introduced several problems that probably makes it better suited as a
downstream patch after all. At any rate, it is not releaseable in the
current state, so we at least need to revert this before the release.
* by adjusting the path to binaries, but not do the same thing to the
search path we end up with inconsistent man-pages. Adjusting the search
path too would be quite messy, and it is not at all obvious that this is
worth the effort, but at any rate it would have to be done before we
could ship this.
* this means that distributed man-pages does not make sense as they depend
on config options, and for better or worse we are still distributing
man pages, so that is something that definitely needs sorting out before
we could ship with this patch.
* we have long held that split-usr is only minimally supported in order
to boot, and something we hope will eventually go away. So before we start
adding even more magic/effort in order to make this work nicely, we should
probably question if it makes sense at all.

In particular, use /lib/systemd instead of /usr/lib/systemd in distributions
like Debian which still have not adopted a /usr merge setup.
Use XML entities from man/custom-entities.ent to replace configured paths while
doing XSLT processing of the original XML files. There was precedent of some
files (such as systemd.generator.xml) which were already using this approach.
This addresses most of the (manual) fixes from this patch:
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/patches/Fix-paths-in-man-pages.patch?h=experimental-220
The idea of using generic XML entities was presented here:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-May/032240.html
This patch solves almost all the issues, with the exception of:
- Path to /bin/mount and /bin/umount.
- Generic statements about preference of /lib over /etc.
These will be handled separately by follow up patches.
Tested:
- With default configure settings, ran "make install" to two separate
directories and compared the output to confirm they matched exactly.
- Used a set of configure flags including $CONFFLAGS from Debian:
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/rules
Installed the tree and confirmed the paths use /lib/systemd instead of
/usr/lib/systemd and that no other unexpected differences exist.
- Confirmed that `make distcheck` still passes.

Systemd 209 started setting $WATCHDOG_PID, and sd-daemon watch was
modified to check for this variable. This means that
sd_watchdog_enabled() stopped working with previous versions of
systemd. But sd-event is a public library and API and we must keep it
working even when a program compiled with a newer version of the
libary is used on a system running an older version of the manager.
getenv() and unsetenv() are fairly expensive calls, so optimize
sd_watchdog_enabled() by not calling them when unnecessary.
man: centralize the description of $WATCHDOG_PID and $WATCHDOG_USEC in
the sd_watchdog_enabled manpage. It is better not to repeat the same
stuff in two places.

It's now part of libsystemd, and should be used like any other API.

This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to:
comma placement.

word omissions and word class choice.

Also, introduce a new environment variable named $WATCHDOG_PID which
cotnains the PID of the process that is supposed to send the keep-alive
events. This is similar how $LISTEN_FDS and $LISTEN_PID work together,
and protects against confusing processes further down the process tree
due to inherited environment.
