Before, we would initialize many fields twice: first
by filling the structure with zeros, and then a second
time with the real values. We can let the compiler do
the job for us, avoiding one copy.
A downside of this patch is that text gets slightly
bigger. This is because all zero() calls are effectively
inlined:
$ size build/.libs/systemd
text data bss dec hex filename
before 897737 107300 2560 1007597 f5fed build/.libs/systemd
after 897873 107300 2560 1007733 f6075 build/.libs/systemd
… actually less than 1‰.
A few asserts that the parameter is not null had to be removed. I
don't think this changes much, because first, it is quite unlikely
for the assert to fail, and second, an immediate SEGV is almost as
good as an assert.

Also split out some fileio functions to fileio.c and provide a SELinux
aware pendant in fileio-label.c

This simplifies the upstream system code quite a bit. If downstream distributions want to maintain compatibility with their old configuration files, they are welcome to do so, but need to maintain this as patches downstream. The burden needs to be on the distributions to maintain differences here. Our suggestion however is to just convert the old configuration files on upgrade, as multiple distributions already do.

TARGET_UBUNTU is effectively the same as TARGET_DEBIAN. Given the Ubuntu
is unlikely to use systemd anytime soon there's no point in keeping this
separate.

The MeeGo distribution is still a supported distribution, but
will probably not see an updated version of systemd anymore.
Most of the development is focussing on Tizen now, and the
generic support for building --with-distro=other is more than
adequate enough.
This patch removes the support as a custom configuration build
target in systemd. People who are still building this for
the MeeGo distribution should build as "other" distro.

We finally got the OK from all contributors with non-trivial commits to
relicense systemd from GPL2+ to LGPL2.1+.
Some udev bits continue to be GPL2+ for now, but we are looking into
relicensing them too, to allow free copy/paste of all code within
systemd.
The bits that used to be MIT continue to be MIT.
The big benefit of the relicensing is that closed source code may now
link against libsystemd-login.so and friends.
