This commit activates the use of clone3() for service_fork(), to allow
Linux to create the new process directly in the correct cgroup instead
of later moving it there -- much cheaper and less error prone.
To facilitate this a few new helper cgroup functions have been added and
two new configuration directives introduced: delegate and name:leafname.
The delegate option is for running, e.g., container runtimes that want
to create their own cgroup v2 structur, and the name:leafname allows a
user to change the name of the subgroup under user/system/init.

These variables really belong in conf.c. Relocate and move external
decls. from finit.h -> conf.h to simplify linking of other programs.

This adds a new function conf_save_service() replacing service_register() for
plugins and bundled services like watchdogd, keventd, runparts, etc.
The benefits to this change are several:
- Plugin/Bundled services no longer risk starting before udev or other
critical services/task have started
- Definitions can be overridden by an administrator (see docs)
- Increases visibility (user: where are all these services coming from?)
Previously the origin (file the service was loaded from) was NULL.
- Adds another level of extensibility to Finit
The most notable change is that dbus is no longer started before udevd.

This change adds support for a new command line option finit.config=PATH
which can be used to tell Finit to start with /etc/factory.conf instead
of /etc/finit.conf.
For the complete experience a new top-level configuration file directive
`rcsd PATH` has aslo been added. It in turn can be used by factory.conf
as follows to override /etc/finit.d:
rcsd /etc/factory.d

Finit can now track and set environment variables from finit.conf. The
syntax is pretty much what you'd expect:
foo=bar
baz="qux"
On reload of .conf files, all tracked environment variables are cleared
so if `foo=bar` is removed from finit.conf, or any finit.d/*.conf file,
it will no longer be used by Finit or any new (!) started run/tasks or
services.
The only variables reset to sane defaults on .conf reload are:
PATH=_PATH_STDPATH
SHELL=_PATH_BSHELL
LOGNAME=root
USER=root
It is entirely possible to override these as well from the .conf files,
but be careful. Changing SHELL changes the behavior of system() and a
lot of other commands as well.

The main purpose of this patch is to remove top-level cgroups when they
are remvoed from finit.conf. However, this is tricky, becasue there may
still be supervised services (and children of them) running. We must
postpone removal until a cgroup.events change. To make matters worse,
events may arrive out-of-order, i.e. the last-child event for the parent
cgroup before the sub-group.
A spin-off from this patch is that we can now support arbitrarily long
group names and group config. (Only applies to top-level cgroups, not
run/task/services.)
Limitations:
- Processes in "removed" cgroups are not migrated/orphaned, the reasons
are several: overhead and complexity and the fact that memory cannot
be migrated
- A lingering child of a moved service may prevent an old top-level
cgroup from being removed.

This patch adds support for modifying settings for the default cgroups;
init, user, and system, as well as adding up to a total of eight groups
for the system.
Services can now be assigned to a cgroup, with optional extra settings
for that particular process group. The syntax is slightly contrivied
but follows the overall Finit syntax of prop:value,prop':value', e.g.
cgroup maint cpu.weight:123,mem.max:10000
Starting with the introduction of rlimits, a group of services sharing
the same .conf file can share the same (locally "global") rlimits, and
now also the same cgroup, e.g.
cgroup.maint
service foo
service bar cgroup:mem.max:1000
This puts foo and bar in the same top-level cgroup 'maint', with an
extra memory restriction on bar for max 1000 bytes memory.
NOTE: 'mem.' is a Finit extension, a shorthand for cgroups2 'memory.'

- Use iwatch, modeled after pidfile plugin
- Use one .conf watcher for all *.conf paths/files
- Use full path of conf file for changes, from realpath().
This fixes a long-standing limitation on unique filenames
for services, that absolutely nobody knew about

Up until now Finit has only read /proc/cmdline to determine debug level,
single user mode, etc. This patch is one in a series to make enable it
to run also in containers.

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.

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.
