This change removes a long standing kernel requirement and architectural
mishap in the design of Finit v1. It is no longer necessary to include
CONFIG_SYSVIPC in the kernel to use Finit and its command line tool
initctl. It is also no longer possible to connect to the internals of
PID 1 using shmat(), the initctl tool has already been updated to use
the domain socket API.

This patch extends the existing rlimit implementation to support setting
limits per service, run/task, inetd, and tty.
Use rlimit in /etc/finit.conf to change the global setting, which is
then inherited to each /etc/finit.d/*.conf. For each .conf file the
rlimit is reinitialized to the global finit.conf settings.
Also, add `unlimited` keyword, to replace the now deprecated `infinity`
keyword. The latter is however kept, for compatibility with previous
releases, for the foreseeable future.

All this code did was trigger prctl() to set process name to "console",
which you could use as a simple means of figuring out if a process was
started from the system console.
There are other ways to do this, which Finit should not be involved in.

The generic term for a non-running service is blocked, but a service may
be blocked for several different reasons. When a user stops a service
with `initctl stop` the intuitive expected output from `initctl show` is
"stopped" not "blocked".
When the user later restarts the service with `initctl start` it may of
course be blocked due to wrong runlevel or a missing condition. As can
be expected from the service's configuration.
The rest of the patch refactors the internal API names a bit to reflect
this change.

Also, update the service help text in doc/config.md to include info on
both runlevels and explain the condition in the listed example.

This patch removes the now heavily outdated (and non-working) support
for callback plugins. I.e. plugins that attach themselves to services
listed in /etc/finit.conf and can be queried to determine if a service
should be started or stopped.
The Finit3 support for adding/removing services at runtime with plain
text *.conf files in /etc/finit.d and `initctl reload`, this old, and
rather cumbersome service callback feature, is not longer supported.

This patch adds support for running fsck on all file systems listed in
/etc/fstab with a passno > 0. The fsck runs sequentially, starting with
the root fs (passno 1).

The TTY handling in Finit has always been a bit of a patch work. This
commit is an attempt at a first cleanup and simplification.
Included is a brand new built-in getty which should work fine on both
virtual and serial consoles. It is however completely untested on the
latter serial consoles.
Still TODO: add support for /etc/securetty, add support for actually
setting TERM when calling /bin/login.
