This adds a new invocation ID concept to the service manager. The invocation ID
identifies each runtime cycle of a unit uniquely. A new randomized 128bit ID is
generated each time a unit moves from and inactive to an activating or active
state.
The primary usecase for this concept is to connect the runtime data PID 1
maintains about a service with the offline data the journal stores about it.
Previously we'd use the unit name plus start/stop times, which however is
highly racy since the journal will generally process log data after the service
already ended.
The "invocation ID" kinda matches the "boot ID" concept of the Linux kernel,
except that it applies to an individual unit instead of the whole system.
The invocation ID is passed to the activated processes as environment variable.
It is additionally stored as extended attribute on the cgroup of the unit. The
latter is used by journald to automatically retrieve it for each log logged
message and attach it to the log entry. The environment variable is very easily
accessible, even for unprivileged services. OTOH the extended attribute is only
accessible to privileged processes (this is because cgroupfs only supports the
"trusted." xattr namespace, not "user."). The environment variable may be
altered by services, the extended attribute may not be, hence is the better
choice for the journal.
Note that reading the invocation ID off the extended attribute from journald is
racy, similar to the way reading the unit name for a logging process is.
This patch adds APIs to read the invocation ID to sd-id128:
sd_id128_get_invocation() may be used in a similar fashion to
sd_id128_get_boot().
PID1's own logging is updated to always include the invocation ID when it logs
information about a unit.
A new bus call GetUnitByInvocationID() is added that allows retrieving a bus
path to a unit by its invocation ID. The bus path is built using the invocation
ID, thus providing a path for referring to a unit that is valid only for the
current runtime cycleof it.
Outlook for the future: should the kernel eventually allow passing of cgroup
information along AF_UNIX/SOCK_DGRAM messages via a unique cgroup id, then we
can alter the invocation ID to be generated as hash from that rather than
entirely randomly. This way we can derive the invocation race-freely from the
messages.

This should be handled fine now by .dir-locals.el, so need to carry that
stuff in every file.

As discussed at systemd.conf 2015 and on also raised on the ML:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-November/034880.html
This removes the two XyzOverridable= unit dependencies, that were
basically never used, and do not enhance user experience in any way.
Most folks looking for the functionality this provides probably opt for
the "ignore-dependencies" job mode, and that's probably a good idea.
Hence, let's simplify systemd's dependency engine and remove these two
dependency types (and their inverses).
The unit file parser and the dbus property parser will now redirect
the settings/properties to result in an equivalent non-overridable
dependency. In the case of the unit file parser we generate a warning,
to inform the user.
The dbus properties for this unit type stay available on the unit
objects, but they are now hidden from usual introspection and will
always return the empty list when queried.
This should provide enough compatibility for the few unit files that
actually ever made use of this.

string-util.[ch]
There are more than enough calls doing string manipulations to deserve
its own files, hence do something about it.
This patch also sorts the #include blocks of all files that needed to be
updated, according to the sorting suggestions from CODING_STYLE. Since
pretty much every file needs our string manipulation functions this
effectively means that most files have sorted #include blocks now.
Also touches a few unrelated include files.

Let's add a way to get the type-specific D-Bus interface of a unit from
either its type or name to src/basic/unit-name.[ch]. That way we can
share it with the client side, where it is useful in tools like cgls or
machinectl.
Also ports over machinectl to make use of this.

These units' message format strings are identical to the generic
strings. Since we can always rely on the fallback, these are now
redundant.

This reverts commit 6e392c9c45643d106673c6643ac8bf4e65da13c1.
We really shouldn't invent external state keeping hashmaps, if we can
keep this state in the units themselves.

Because the order of coldplugging is not defined, we can reference a
not-yet-coldplugged unit and read its state while it has not yet been
set to a meaningful value.
This way, already active units may get started again.
We fix this by deferring such actions until all units have been at
least somehow coldplugged.

This patch removes includes that are not used. The removals were found with
include-what-you-use which checks if any of the symbols from a header is
in use.

changing unit state
Unit _start() and _stop() implementations can fail with -EAGAIN to delay
execution temporarily. Thus, we should not output status messages before
invoking these calls, but after, and only when we know that the
invocation actually made a change.

This patch converts PID 1 to libsystemd-bus and thus drops the
dependency on libdbus. The only remaining code using libdbus is a test
case that validates our bus marshalling against libdbus' marshalling,
and this dependency can be turned off.
This patch also adds a couple of things to libsystem-bus, that are
necessary to make the port work:
- Synthesizing of "Disconnected" messages when bus connections are
severed.
- Support for attaching multiple vtables for the same interface on the
same path.
This patch also fixes the SetDefaultTarget() and GetDefaultTarget() bus
calls which used an inappropriate signature.
As a side effect we will now generate PropertiesChanged messages which
carry property contents, rather than just invalidation information.

I'm assuming that it's fine if a _const_ or _pure_ function
calls assert. It is assumed that the assert won't trigger,
and even if it does, it can only trigger on the first call
with a given set of parameters, and we don't care if the
compiler moves the order of calls.

all other dependencies are in 3rd person. Change BindTo= accordingly to
BindsTo=.
Of course, the dependency is widely used, hence we parse the old name
too for compatibility.

Instead of generic "Starting..." and "Started" messages for all unit use
type-dependent messages. For example, mounts will announce "Mounting..."
and "Mounted".
Add status messages to units of types that used to be entirely silent
(automounts, sockets, targets, devices). For unit types whose jobs are
instantaneous, report only the job completion, not the starting event.
Socket units with non-instantaneous jobs are rare (Exec*= is not used
often in socket units), so I chose not to print the starting messages
for them either.
This will hopefully give people better understanding of the boot.

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.
