Joachim Nilsson 0e02429e75 Convert finit to use libev and fix so plugin ctors runs on dlopen().
Lots of cleanup and simplification of the main code in this commit.
Most notably libev has been added to take care of the main loop and
monitor services. Still TODO is migrating to use the libev signal
handling.

Convert initctl.c:listen_initctl() to a plugin instead.  This also
meant introducing a new form of I/O plugin to finit, also handled
by libev.

Load plugins *after* we've setup the base filesystem (BASEFS) in case
plugins reside on a filesystem not reachable before "mount -a" has run.
This also has the side effect of lining up nicely with the first level
plugin hooks.

If a plugin wants to hook up with a loded service we connect them by
their respective numeric IDs in plugin_register().  I.e., the service
monitor checks if a service has a registered callback, which in turn
decides if a service should be started, stopped or reloaded.

Rip out old EeePC distribution defines from finit.h, none of it really
applies anymore.  If you need distribution specific settings this is
the place to put them.

Make hookpoint names (#defines) clearer: after BASEFS, after networking,
after all setup, etc.

Use #inlude_next <signal.h> in signal.h to include system header file!

Simplify service monitor: move essential code to svc.c and rip out
the TIPC dependency. Write your own service.so plugin, or wait for
a more complete example of how to extend service monitoring using
the primitives in svc.c

Joachim Nilsson 855c7d8251 Assume kernel has devtmpfs enabled --> cleanup device creation & mount
Cleanup device creation and initial mount by assuming that the kernel
has devtmpfs enabled.  This is the default for most modern GNU/Linux
distributions.  See http://lwn.net/Articles/331818/ for more info.

Also, since finit is targeted at deeply embedded systems hooks for the
BusyBox udev replacement, mdev has been added.  If MDEV is defined in
the build it will take care of both hotplugging of devices and initial
setup of /dev

Joachim Nilsson 4657d9713a Minor cleanup. Moved code around a bit, to functions, away from main().
This commit is in preparation for importing the Westermo code changes.
Slowly refactoring the finit core into a more modularized unit to be a
bit more maintainable.
