keventd: expand scope to become a unified device manager

Evolve keventd from a power_supply-only monitor into a full device
manager capable of replacing mdev/mdevd on embedded systems.  This
is the first step towards Finit v5.0 where keventd absorbs devmon.

New capabilities:

 - Parse all uevent actions (add, remove, change, bind, unbind)
 - Create and remove /dev nodes with subsystem-aware permissions
 - Create persistent symlinks in /dev/disk/by-{id,path} and
   /dev/input/by-{id,path}, tracked for cleanup on device removal
 - Load firmware from /lib/firmware/ via the sysfs loading protocol
 - Spawn modprobe for MODALIAS events (async, non-blocking)
 - Coldplug support via -c flag (walks /sys/devices to replay events)
 - Set dev/* conditions for Finit's service dependency system

The original power_supply monitoring and sys/pwr/ac condition are
preserved.

New files: keventd.h (structures/API), uevent.c (all device logic).
The receive buffer is increased to 8K with a 1MB socket buffer to
reduce event loss during coldplug bursts.

/* Listens to kernel events like AC power status and manages sys/ conditions

* TODO / known limitations
* - firmware_load() copies synchronously in the main event loop; a
* multi-MB blob (e.g. iwlwifi) blocks all other event handling for
* the duration. Worker pool / fork-per-event would unblock this
* (see .notes/keventd-eudev-gap-analysis.md, gap #8).
* - firmware_load() does not handle compressed firmware (.xz, .zst).
* Modern linux-firmware ships .xz blobs; kernels with
* CONFIG_FW_LOADER_COMPRESS decompress in-kernel via direct
* loading, but the legacy /sys/.../loading path used here passes
* raw bytes only. Adding liblzma/libzstd would close this gap for
* drivers using the userhelper fallback on systems without
* CONFIG_FW_LOADER_COMPRESS.
