GLIB has recently started to officially support the gcc cleanup
attribute in its public API, hence let's do the same for our APIs.
With this patch we'll define an xyz_unrefp() call for each public
xyz_unref() call, to make it easy to use inside a
__attribute__((cleanup())) expression. Then, all code is ported over to
make use of this.
The new calls are also documented in the man pages, with examples how to
use them (well, I only added docs where the _unref() call itself already
had docs, and the examples, only cover sd_bus_unrefp() and
sd_event_unrefp()).
This also renames sd_lldp_free() to sd_lldp_unref(), since that's how we
tend to call our destructors these days.
Note that this defines no public macro that wraps gcc's attribute and
makes it easier to use. While I think it's our duty in the library to
make our stuff easy to use, I figure it's not our duty to make gcc's own
features easy to use on its own. Most likely, client code which wants to
make use of this should define its own:
#define _cleanup_(function) __attribute__((cleanup(function)))
Or similar, to make the gcc feature easier to use.
Making this logic public has the benefit that we can remove three header
files whose only purpose was to define these functions internally.
See #2008.

Exported header files should not include internal headers. Fix that.
Exported header files should not use the bool type. So far we opted to
stick to C89 for exported headers, and hence use "int" for bools in
them. Continue to do so.
Exported header files should have #include lines for everything they use
including inttypes.h and sys/types.h, so that they may be included in
any order.
Exported header files should have C++ guards, hence add them.
Exported header files should not use gcc extensions like #pragma once,
get rid of it.

Imagine the following use of hwdb:
if (condition_A)
SD_HWDB_FOREACH_PROPERTY(hwdb, modalias, key, value)
operation_A(key, value);
else
log_error("...");
This should work just fine, but but definitely does not what you would
expect. Due to how SD_HWDB_FOREACH_PROPERTY is defined, the dangling
'else' is linked to the hidden 'if' statement in the macro instead of the
outer 'if (condition_A)'. This is unexpected and really annoying to debug.
Fix this by never leaving un-finished if-statements in
SD_HWDB_FOREACH_PROPERTY(). We simply inverse the if() statement and
explicitly add an 'else'-branch. This way, the statement is closed and all
ambuguities are resolved.

Lets not pollute the global namespace. Prefix all our exported names and
macros with SD_HWDB_*.

This is libudev-hwdb, but decoupled from libudev and in the libsystemd style.
The core code is unchanged, apart from the following minor changes:
- hwdb.bin located in /**/systemd/hwdb/ take preference over the ones located
in /**/udev/
- properties are stored internally in an OrderedHashmap, rather than a
linked list.
- a new API call allows individual properties to be queried directly, rather
than iterating over them all
- the iteration over properties have been moved inside the library, rather than
exposing a list directly
- the unused 'flags' parameter was dropped
