Bring some arrays that are used for DEFINE_STRING_TABLE_LOOKUP() in the
same order than the enums they reference.
Also, pass the corresponding _MAX value to the array initalizer where
appropriate.

Also fix a copy-paste error that broke matching on interface name.

first (or second)
Previously the returned object of constructor functions where sometimes
returned as last, sometimes as first and sometimes as second parameter.
Let's clean this up a bit. Here are the new rules:
1. The object the new object is derived from is put first, if there is any
2. The object we are creating will be returned in the next arguments
3. This is followed by any additional arguments
Rationale:
For functions that operate on an object we always put that object first.
Constructors should probably not be too different in this regard. Also,
if the additional parameters might want to use varargs which suggests to
put them last.
Note that this new scheme only applies to constructor functions, not to
all other functions. We do give a lot of freedom for those.
Note that this commit only changes the order of the new functions we
added, for old ones we accept the wrong order and leave it like that.

This mimics the sd-bus api, as we may need it in the future.

We can always know the size based on the type, so let's do this inside the library.

sd_rtnl_xxx_new_yyy()
So far we followed the rule to always indicate the "flavour" of
constructors after the "_new_" or "_open_" in the function name, so
let's keep things in sync here for rtnl and do the same.
|
|
The "sd_" prefix is supposed to be used on exported symbols only, and
not in the middle of names. Let's drop it from the cleanup macros hence,
to make things simpler.
The bus cleanup macros don't carry the "sd_" either, so this brings the
APIs a bit nearer.

Also limit the range of vlan ids. Other implementations and
documentation use the ranges {0,1}-{4094,4095}, but we use
the one accepted by the kernel: 0-4094.

Both in the configuration file format and everywhere else in the code.

The kernel will not be changed to support this, so drop the code. Listening
for all RTM_NEWLINK messages and filtering on name is reliable, so it is not
a problem.
|

When creating a new link, the kernel will not inform us about the new ifindex
in its ack. We have to listen for newly created devices and deduce the new
ifindex by matching on the ifname.
We used to do this by waiting for a new device from libudev, but that is asking
for trouble, as udev will happily rename the device before handing it to us.
Listen on rtnl instead, the chance of the name being changed before reaching us
is much smaller (if not nil).
Kernel patch in the works to make this unneccessary.

Refactor bridging support to be generic netdev support and extend it to
cover bonding as well.
