This patch removes the long standing Watchdog daemon from the TODO list.
We now have a bare-bones watchdog service built-in to Finit, with
support for handing over to an external, and possibly more advanced,
using the initctl API.

This patch adds a simple but effective watchdog daemon with support for
handover to an external daemon, should one register using the API.
Disabled by default, enable by:
configure --enable-watchdog
The watchdog forks to the background, opening /dev/watchdog setting a
three second timeout, and kicking every second. At shutdown/reboot the
daemon will receive SIGPWR from Finit to exit and cause a WDT reboot.

To prevent returning the prompt too soon, and thereby messing up the
output from Finit, wait a bit after successful delivery of signal to
reboot/halt/poweroff.

This patch adds initial support for registering a watchdog daemon with
Finit. Needed for situations when you want the system to actually be
rebooted by the watchdog timer (WDT) circuitry rather than the kernel.
The initctl API has been extended with a INIT_CMD_WDOG_HELLO command
that is used to both register and "ping" Finit periodically. As long as
Finit responds (with an ACK) the watchdog daemon knows Finit is alive.
At shutdown Finit stops all services (except kernel threads and daemons
marked with @ in the first character of their process name) and, if a
watchdog has registered, SIGPWR is sent to it when Finit has finished
unmounting etc., just prior to kernel reboot/halt/poweroff.

Now that we change runlevel at shutdown/reboot, we also need to restore
terse mode before calling the shutdown hooks, like before.

This patch replaces kill(-1, signo) with a more fine grained
do_kill(signo) that traverses each /proc/PID, skipping kernel
threads and special [0][0] == '@' processes.
The reason for this patch is not only future compliance with
freedesktop.org standards, but also a way of not killing any
critical processes at shutdown, e.g. mdadm or watchdogd.

The shutdown hook is supposed to run right before services start
receiving SIGTERM. Change due to previous refactor.

This patch moves both the definition and the call to bootclean() from
finit.c to the bootmisc plugin. We want to call bootclean() *after*
any /run and /var file systems have been mounted.

- New requirements section about what Finit expects from the system
- Remove commented out `udevadm settle` code, now in README

On systems with systemd-udev/udevadm the trigger addition of devices at
boot wrecks havoc of /dev/console. This patch forces Finit to go silent
by default on such systems. Far from ideal, but since the actual root
cause for this messup is unknown this will have to do for now.
Also, add a settle timeout of 120 sec to the udev device tree population.

This patch factors out the fgetint() fallback code for parsing
/etc/services and /etc/protocols. Useful on systems with a
malfunctioning C library.
