This drops the libsystemd-terminal and systemd-consoled code for various
reasons:
* It's been sitting there unfinished for over a year now and won't get
finished any time soon.
* Since its initial creation, several parts need significant rework: The
input handling should be replaced with the now commonly used libinput,
the drm accessors should coordinate the handling of mode-object
hotplugging (including split connectors) with other DRM users, and the
internal library users should be converted to sd-device and friends.
* There is still significant kernel work required before sd-console is
really useful. This includes, but is not limited to, simpledrm and
drmlog.
* The authority daemon is needed before all this code can be used for
real. And this will definitely take a lot more time to get done as
no-one else is currently working on this, but me.
* kdbus maintenance has taken up way more time than I thought and it has
much higher priority. I don't see me spending much time on the
terminal code in the near future.
If anyone intends to hack on this, please feel free to contact me. I'll
gladly help you out with any issues. Once kdbus and authorityd are
finished (whenever that will be..) I'll definitely pick this up again. But
until then, lets reduce compile times and maintenance efforts on this code
and drop it for now.

This introduces a new SYSVIEW_EVENT_SETTLE notification that is sent after
initial scanning via sysview is done. This is very handy to let the
application raise warnings in case requested resources are not found
during startup.
The SETTLE event is sent after systemd-logind and udev enumerations are
done. This event does in no way guarantee that a given resource is
available. All it does is notify the application that scanning is done!
You must not react to SETTLE if you don't have external synchronization
with the resource you're waiting for.
The main use-case for SETTLE is to run applications _inside_ of logind
sessions and startup sysview. You really want to make sure that the own
session you're running in was found during enumeration. If not, something
is seriously wrong.

Add helper to perform session switches on a specific seat whenever we
retrieve a VT-switch keyboard event.

Add "userdata" storage to a bunch of external objects, namely displays and
sessions. Furthermore, add some property retrieval helpers.
This is required if we want external API users to not duplicate our own
object hashtables, but retrieve context from the objects themselves.

Don't leak the device-names during device destruction in sysview. Somehow,
the device-name is "const char*", so make it "char*" first to avoid
warnings when calling free() on it.

We're going to need multiple binaries that provide session-services via
logind device management. To avoid re-writing the seat/session/device
scan/monitor interface for each of them, this commit adds a generic helper
to libsystemd-terminal:
The sysview interface scans and tracks seats, sessions and devices on a
system. It basically mirrors the state of logind on the application side.
Now, each session-service can listen for matching sessions and
attach to them. On each session, managed device access is provided. This
way, it is pretty simple to write session-services that attach to multiple
sessions (even split across seats).
