Aaron Andersen b46592e818 Add support for supplementary groups
Implement supplementary group support for services, allowing them to
access resources owned by multiple groups. Uses the @user:group,sup1,sup2
syntax to explicitly specify supplementary groups, in addition to now
reading group membership from /etc/group.

Aaron Andersen be2a0ec3e7 Add support for Linux capabilities
Implement Linux capability support for services, allowing them to run
with minimal required privileges instead of running as root. This uses
the modern IAB (Inheritable, Ambient, Bounding) API from libcap.

Joachim Wiberg 927acdbd7e Increase MAX_ID_LEN to support longer service identifiers
Allow service IDs up to 64 characters to support SHA-256 hashes,
UUIDs, and other long unique identifiers. This increases memory
usage by ~98 bytes per service instance, which is negligible for
typical deployments.

The IDENT column width in initctl output adapts dynamically based
on actual ID lengths in use, so short IDs remain unaffected.

Joachim Wiberg 39f4aa3f2c Simplify, a daemon is one of service or sysv
Historically we've kept these two apart, but their commonalities are far
more than what separates them.

This fixes a bug where ready:scripts were not called for sysv daemons,
and also opens up for adding support for a reload:script for both types.

Joachim Wiberg 76f8a18816 Fix #440: refactor systemd and s6 readiness notifcation
This patch fixes issue #440 which details how systemd readiness
notification has been broken since its inception in Finit.

In addition to now providing a proper abstract socket, the refactor
also drops the reliance on the Finit client API to fetch a socket.
Now an s6 descriptor is the write end of a pipe() and the systemd
socket is instead created before forking off the service.

Joachim Wiberg 3add682be3 Wait for post:script and cleanup:script before returning OK
This change introduces two new states for the big Finit state machine:
runlevel-clean and reload-clean.  Here Finit now waits for any post or
cleanup script to finish before returning OK to the initctl command.

Additionally, the service state machine has been updated to ensure a
run/task/sysv/service calls any post or cleanup script before they are
removed.  A new 'dead' state for svc_t is introduced which any removed
svc_t ends up in now instead of becing collected from 'halted' state.

Joachim Wiberg 46ffa81f5c Only mark rdeps dirty if main service is nohup
This patch changes a behavior that's been default since Finit 4.0,
introduced in 4d05bf9 with 4.0-rc2.

If service B depends on A and A needs to be reloaded, then B may be
affected.  If A is declared as NOHUP <!>, then A will be stopped and
restarted, during which time the condition it provides is removed,
and B will also be stopped.

However, and as of this patch, if A is declared supporting HUP, then the
condition A provides will only go into flux, during which time B will be
SIGSTOPed instead of needing to be reloaded.

Joachim Wiberg 0b5c555c7f Add 'notify:pid' style readiness notifaction and 'readiness none'
This change expands the readiness notification system in Finit with the
native 'pid' style, which will remain the default readiness in Finit 4.x

For systems that want to transition to Finit 5.x early, a global option
to set 'readiness none' in /etc/finit.conf, has been added.  This change
the service default notification mode to 'notify:none', which can also
be set by Finit 4.x ('readiness pid') for select services.

Joachim Wiberg afe0488bf2 Add support for runtime evaluation of if:<condition> statements
The if: statement, introduced in v4.4, allows for discarding run/task/services
that depend on other services, based on that service's name, or condition.
Discarding in this context means unloading from the configuration.

At runtime, however, it has proven quite useful to be able to conditionally
qualify a run/task/service based on a condition.  Consider this example from
the Infix operating system:

run name:startup log:prio:user.notice \
	[S] <pid/sysrepo> confd -b --load startup-config -- Loading startup-config

run name:failure log:prio:user.critical if:<usr/fail-startup> \
	[S] <pid/sysrepo> confd --load failure-config -- Loading failure-config

The two run statements reside in the same .conf file so Finit runs them in true
sequence.  If loading the file `startup-config` fails confd sets the condition
usr/fail-startup, thus allowing the next run statement to load `failure-config`.

Notice the difference between <pid/sysrepo> condition and if:<usr/fail-startup>.
The former is a condition for starting and the latter is a condition to check if
a run/task/service is qualified to even be considerered.  The best comparison is
with the [runlevel] option, it too is used to qualify.

Joachim Wiberg 939ae02a6a Increase MAX command, and arg., length: 64 -> 256
With non-standard paths, e.g., when running `make distcheck`, the
absolute path to some commands become ridiculously long.  However,
this has been a recurring issue for some users in the past, so it
is time to increase the capabilibieies of Finit to cover this.

Yes, a better way is probably to allocate all these strings when they
are used, but that would require a redesign of the initctl API and
likely cause a lot of regressions before everything has stabilized.

Joachim Wiberg 51befb492c Allow conflicting services to start when conflict is resolved
These changes add a new svc_block_t type: SVC_BLOCK_CONFLICT so a user
can more clearly see why a run/task/service has not been started by
Finit.  The reason for the block is by default logged, which can be
escaped by using the `nowarn` flag.

Also, when the conflict is resolved, allow the service to start.

With these changes, the system/hotplug.conf should work better and
cause less questions about "strange" log messages.

Joachim Wiberg a61c2ceb79 Fix #310: service restart delay not working
Always use the configured restart delay for crashing services.  If no
delay is configured, we default to an initial 2000 msec for forking
daemons and start-stop scripts, and 1 msec for non-forking daemons.

We must track the increasing delay in the svc_t because processes can
fail quickly in differing ways.  E.g, the test daemon 'serv' behaves
extra evil by crashing right after having created its pidile (i.e.,
when it's signaled to Finit it is 'ready' and all is dandy ...).  If
we don't track the delay per svc_t we would restart 'serv' after only
1 msec every (other) time.

Joachim Wiberg 912a281ee2 Fix #299: add support for service readiness notification
This patch adds service readiness notification to support daemons
employing systemd and s6 notification.  Complementing the native
Finit readiness support using PID files that exist already.

The two have slightly different ways of implementing readiness:

 - https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/sd_notify.html
 - https://skarnet.org/software/s6/notifywhenup.html

Finit now provides both a NOTIFY_SOCKET environemnt variable, for
systemd, and a way to start s6 daemons with a descriptor argument.

For details on the syntax, see the `service` documentation.

This patch renames the internal states for run/task/services to avoid
any confusion with the introduction of 'ready:scripts'.

 * WAITING -> PAUSED

instead use <service/foo/waiting>.

Note: A new condition with the old name <service/foo/ready> will be

      used in other PID 1, like systemd and s6.

Joachim Wiberg abcb3ceb67 Fix #300: add ready:script for services, called when daemon is ready
In Finit a daemon can signal its readiness by creating/touching its PID
file.  An ancient UNIX concept -- a daemon creates its PID file when it
has set up signal handlers and is ready to receive IPC (signals), right
before entering its while(1) loop.

Finit took the concept a bit further, adding readiness signalling also
to daemon's by touching their PID file after having processed a SIGHUP.

For both these conditions Finit now supports a ready:script, called when
readiness is detected.  In later commits support for s6 and systemd
style readiness notification will be added that will hook the mechanism
implemented in this commit as well.
