Finit had no way to answer the question every service manager gets
asked: what is running, and change it. D-Bus is how the rest of
userspace asks, but linking libdbus, sd-bus or GIO into PID 1 buys a
dependency, an allocator and a main loop we do not control.
So libink: the wire format, an object tree, and a bus of Finit's own
at /run/finit/bus, gated like INIT_SOCKET. It speaks the standard
org.freedesktop.DBus, .Peer, .Introspectable interfaces, and Finit's
own Manager1, Service1 and Cond1 on top. Methods that change
something are marked privileged and answered only for a caller the
kernel vouched for, via SO_PEERCRED.
Server and client both, since initctl is the first thing that needs
to talk to it, and its Start/Stop/Restart/Reload now go over the bus
rather than the legacy socket.

Finit now requires being able to query at least for the root user and
group before starting any services.
Also, add support for using libraries installed in /usr/local

Renamed .conf file for udev/mdev etc. caused 'mdev -df' to start in
tests. This fix closes that again since none of that is needed in
our small namespaced world.
