hostname, locale, timezone
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.

journalctl and vconsole-setup both implement utf8 locale detection.
Let's have a common function for it.
The next patch will add another use.

No longer override the default kernel keymap if nothing is specified in
vconsole.conf.
The default should be to do nothing (i.e., use what is already in the
kernel) unless the distro/admin has explicitly requested it.

No longer override the default kernel font if nothing is specified in
vconsole.conf.
The default kernel font[0] provides ISO-8859-1 and box characters. Users
of Arabic, Cyrilic or Hebrew must set a different font manually as these
character sets were provided by the old default font [1], but are not
any longer.
Rationale:
* it is counter-intuitive that an empty vconsole.conf file is different
from adding FONT="";
* the version of the default font shipped with Arch (which is the
upstream one) behaves very badly during early boot[2] (which should
admittedly be fixed in the font itself);
* the kernel already supplies a default font, it seems reasonable to
use that unless anything else is specified;
* This also avoids a needless slow call to setfont; and
* We don't want to work around problems in the kernel (in case the
compiled-in font is not acceptable for whatever reason).

also a number of minor fixups and bug fixes: spelling, oom errors
that didn't print errors, not properly forwarding error codes,
few more consistency issues, et cetera

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.

Rather than assuming the console is in utf-8 mode if nothing else is
specified, be a bit more robust and enable it explicitly.
This fixes a regression compared with Arch's initscripts when not
using a framebuffer as the old VGA console would not be in utf-8
mode by default.
Furthermore, this would allow vconsole-setup to be used after boot
to change the vconsole into utf-8 mode in case it has been set to
non-utf-8 mode for whatever reason. I.e, the following would leave
the console in utf-8 mode as expected:
# export LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-1
# /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-vconsole-setup
# export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
# /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-vconsole-setup

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.
