Patrick Stewart added the optional `log` keyword to service, run, task
and inetd stanzas in 889bce1. It redirects stdout/stderr to syslog
using the logger tool. This addition to the README is mainly just a
place holder so it's not forgotten before the upcoming README refactor.

Adds an extra 'log' parameter to services that routes STDOUT and STDERR to syslog.
Uses a PTY rather than a pipe, as this prevents log messages hanging around in a buffer indefinitely.
In service_start() the SIGCHLD handler is reenabled before calling complete(), so the service could be reaped by the SIGCHLD handler leaving service_start() waiting forever
Also remove code that duplicates sig_unblock()
The alsa-utils, dbus, lost (PID), resolvconf, and x11-common plugins are
rarely used in the main use-case for Finit (embedded head-less systems).
This patch disables them by default and makes them possible to enable by
configure --enable-$PLUGIN switches.

Slightly more readable code and fix issue with --enable-$PLUGIN not
biting properly in the generated Makefile.

This patch replaces the verbose and kernel-quiet runtime options with
a (hopefully) more useful quiet and silent modes of operation.
By default Finit progressively shows all services it starts at boot, but
when boot has completed and services are started/restarted Finit prints
nothing. If `--disable-quiet` is given all started/restared/stoppping
messages are shown even after boot.
However, if `--enable-silent` is given Finit is completely silent even
at boot, no progress is shown, until the first service is started, which
on most systems is login.

Remove confusing `--with-aix-soname` option to configure. Replace with
hard-coded `aix-soname=both` => shared + static archives are build as to
be expected.

This patch prevents too early start of services depending on other
services. E.g, if service B depends on A then we must wait for A to
signal that it is ready before we allow B to start -- in a Finit based
system A does this by creating, or touching (updating mtime), its PID
file. Services (like A) that support SIGHUP should call utime(), or
utimensat(), on the PID file at the end of their SIGHUP handler.

From now on the user is required to have libuEv and libite installed
before building and installing finit. This is for maintenance reasons.

This patch adds support for the runtime `HOOK_SVC_LOST` and the (very
noisy) *example* plugin `lost.so`.
