The tzset() function sets the global variables 'daylight', 'timezone' and 'tzname'
according to the value of the TZ environment variable, or to the value of the
_CS_TIMEZONE configuration string if TZ isn't set, or to UTC0 if neither is set.

This patch reverts back to the progress/status behavior of Finit < v3.0
because this is what most users expect, including the maintainer. The
resulting code and configure script is a lot simpler to understand and
maintain:
- No more --enable-progress or --enable-progress-classic configure
flags. Instead a progress_style variable in helpers.c that can
be changed at compile time for those that really need it.
- No more 'splash' kernel commnand line option. This turned out to
be *very* confusing to many users who believed it was some sort of
graphical splash screen à la Plymouth.
Also, when Finit debug is enabled we now have a global 'debug' flag
which now alo controls if klogctl() should be called to prevent the
kernel logs to the console or not.

This patch removes the built-in inetd support from Finit. We recommend
using an external inetd instead, e.g. xinetd.
If you liked the feature set our inetd provided; filtering per interface
and port redirection, then please let us know or use the code in this
patch (MIT licensed) to recreate it. We are open to reintroducing it,
but then as a stand-alone daemon like the bundled watchdogd and getty.
So long for now, old friend.

Change service conditions from the non-obvious <svc/path/to/foo> to
<pid/foo:id>, utilizing the unique name of the service instead of the
weird composition of paths from /run and PID file names. Hopefully
making it more clear that one service's pidfile is another service's
`<pid/foo>` condition.
Note: this is an incompatible change to the condition system!
The Finit major version will be stepped to indicate this.

The <svc/foo> condition was created to synchronize starting services,
hence the abbreviation. Example: the Quagga ripd needs to start after
the zebra daemon to ensure its UNIX domain socket is active, otherwise
events may be lost.
However, considering that synchronization was implemented with UNIX PID
files, e.g. waiting for /var/run/quagga/zebra.pid to be created, the
condition abbreviation name <svc/foo> was hard to understand by most
newcomers to Finit. To make matters worse, a new feature to track or
even create PID files for services that don't create one themselves,
using the syntax 'pid:/path/to/foo.pid' was added.
Connecting the dots between these wasn't obvious.
This patch renames service conditions pid conditions and also adds
a compatibility wrapper to the Finit .conf parser. Any condition
given in old .conf files with 'svc/' prefix are internally renamed
'pid/', along with a LOG_INFO notice in syslog.

As documented in the kernel docs and systemd[1], the default system
console is the first listed in /sys/class/tty/console/active, which
is the reverse order of console= given on the kernel cmdline.
Some distros don't have console= on their default command line in
their bootloader, e.g. Alpine Linux, some multiple, e.g Buildroot.
Instead of relying on the value given at configure time we probe
sysfs and open all (at most three) consoles listed. This way we
at least get the default console for our progress output.
- drop old --with-console from configure script
- drop /proc/cmdline fishing in favor of sysfs
- replace CONSOLE from configure with new console()

Some targets, like Raspberry Pi, have both serial and HDMI console
enabled. Depending on the order of arguments on the kernel cmdline
either one were selected the default 'stderr', which finit used.
This patch adds support for parsing the console= string(s) and
opening multiple outputs for system startup/progress. In the
end, however, a getty still needs to be started on each of the
consoles to use.

Up until now Finit has only read /proc/cmdline to determine debug level,

This patch adds initial support for starting a SysV init script in a
runlevel, and stopping it when leaving a runlevel.
sysv [LVLS] <COND> /path/to/script.sh -- Optional Description
The SysV /etc/inittab file, which may use /etc/init.d, or /etc/rcN.d,
is still not supported. A separate plugin would be required for this,
see the documentation for more information.

This patch adds a rescue (revovery) mode to Finit. Simply add `rescue`
to the kernel cmdline at boot and the following steps at bootstrap will
be skipped:
- Load of services/run/task/etc in /etc/finit.conf + /etc/finit.d/*.conf
- fsck of filesystems in /etc/fstab
- Remount of / to read-write
- Mount of all filesystems in /etc/fstab
- swapon
- A few plugin hooks:
- HOOK_ROOTFS_UP
- HOOK_MOUNT_ERROR
- HOOK_BASEFS_UP
- `runparts DIR`
- /etc/rc.local
Instead of loading /etc/finit.conf and /etc/finit.d/*.conf Finit loads
the file /lib/finit/rescue.conf, which can be overridden by the operator
if needed. If this file is removed (or lost), Finit falls back to start
a simple root shell, without any login.

This patch is an optimization. Now that we monitor for any .conf file
changes (as soon as the event loop starts) we can skip automatic reload
of all .conf files and services if no .conf file has changed. Unless
the user issues an `initctl reload`, `init q`, or sends us SIGHUP.

Until now Finit has used mtime to determine if a file has been changed,
or simply touched to request reload, when `initctl reload` is called.
Using mtime for this purpose is a monumentally bad idea since time can
be changed at any point: a user may adjust the time, NTP continously
tunes the clock, and time stamps are stored as the walltime. So if we
compare timestamps against the last time we (booted or) did reload, we
would miss .conf file changes.
This patch replaces the mtime mistake with an inotify watcher for the
following files: /etc/finit.d/*.conf, /etc/finit.d/available/*.conf,
and /etc/finit.conf. All file changes between (bootstraps and) calls
to `initctl reload` are tracked, like the mtime backend it replaces.

The following configuration directives, previously only allowed
in /etc/finit.conf, are now also only allowed in runlevel S, i.e.
at bootstrap:
- host
- mknod
- network
- runparts
- runlevel
This change is in preparation for allowing reload of finit.conf
as well as /etc/finit.d/*.conf, which we already support.

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.

In GCC 7 the -Wall infers the new -Wformat-truncation which finds
problems with string truncation in functions like snprintf().
This patch fixes a possibly problem in path name creation which,
combined with the scandir() function, might cause loss of .conf
files, failure to call run-parts properly, and kill services at
shutdown.
