An external plugin to set up /etc can use HOOK_BASEFS_UP, but the Finit
conf_monitor() must then be called *after* not before that hook, or the
inotify watchers will listen on the wrong inode.

This is a quite intrusive change. In addition to the already reserved
runlevels 0 and 6, halt and reboot, respectively, this patch reserves
runlevel 1 as *no networking*, like the traditional SysV init did. One
of the reasons for this change is the new 'single' user mode, introduced
earlier. Most users when entering 'S' or 'single' on the kernel cmdline
expect the single user mode (runlevel 1) to be without networking.
This leaves 2, 3, 4, 5, and 7, 8, 9 as fully user-configurable runlevels
with networking.
Of course, networking can still be enabled in runlevel 1 using ifconfig
or ifupdown, or change runlevel.

This patch adds a rescue (revovery) mode to Finit. Simply add `rescue`
to the kernel cmdline at boot and the following steps at bootstrap will
be skipped:
- Load of services/run/task/etc in /etc/finit.conf + /etc/finit.d/*.conf
- fsck of filesystems in /etc/fstab
- Remount of / to read-write
- Mount of all filesystems in /etc/fstab
- swapon
- A few plugin hooks:
- HOOK_ROOTFS_UP
- HOOK_MOUNT_ERROR
- HOOK_BASEFS_UP
- `runparts DIR`
- /etc/rc.local
Instead of loading /etc/finit.conf and /etc/finit.d/*.conf Finit loads
the file /lib/finit/rescue.conf, which can be overridden by the operator
if needed. If this file is removed (or lost), Finit falls back to start
a simple root shell, without any login.

The difference between `runparts DIR` and `/etc/rc.local` is that one
should run just before the first runlevel change (to the configured
runlevel) at the end of bootstrap, whereas the other should run just
before launcing the TTYs, i.e. after all tasks in the configured
runlevel have been started.

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.

As reported in #92, systems with an udevd very early register a service
using global_rlimit[]. The change was introduced in b68c5c1 but did
not take the ordering problem into consideration, global_rlimit[] was
left uninitialized, which likely led to severely limited udevd that
was continously crashing.

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.

TIL, using mtimes for tracking event orderings is a monumentally bad
idea (queue the nodding UNIX-beards). Mtimes are in wallclock time which
is not necessarily monotonically increasing. A user may adjust the time,
an NTP daemon will continously tune the clock and so on.
Instead, store an explicit generation number in each condition file,
which will be monotonically increased by finit on each reconf.
This patch moves the networking bit to the latter part of bootstrap,
called finalize(), in favor of starting the event loop earlier.

This change removes a long standing kernel requirement and architectural
mishap in the design of Finit v1. It is no longer necessary to include
CONFIG_SYSVIPC in the kernel to use Finit and its command line tool
initctl. It is also no longer possible to connect to the internals of
PID 1 using shmat(), the initctl tool has already been updated to use
the domain socket API.

This patch fixes the problem with run/task jobs with conditions, run at
runlevel S (bootstrap), not being given enough time to actually start
and run even once.
The new svc counter 'once' is now inspected before transitioning away
from runlevel S to the configured runlevel. A global (currently hard
coded) timeout of 10 sec is given to all run/tasks.
As a spin-off, this patch starts up the event loop much earlier than
before. Meaning the initial runlevel change at boot is now done in
a finalize() callback when all run/tasks have completed, or when the
global timeout has expired. Starting the event loop earlier gives us
the possibility to rely on the pidfile plugin to provide our run/tasks
with the conditions necessary to start.
TODO: What remains is to add similar handling to all runlevel
transitions, not just the initial one at boot.

Systems running OverlayFS, or similar, on /etc may have new/modified

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.

This patch not only greatly simplifies the registration of the built-in
watchdog daemon, it also fixes a nasty race condition with an external
watchdog daemon. The INIT_CMD_WDOG_HELLO could reach finit in reversed
order, leading to the built-in daemon shutting down, but finit killing
the just registered external daemon.

All this code did was trigger prctl() to set process name to "console",
which you could use as a simple means of figuring out if a process was

In commit 34a1524 the start of udevd was refactored to allow it to be a
properly monitored service caused systems using eudev to malfunction.
This patch reverts part of that commit and adds a workaround found when
trying to reproduce issue #82 on Void Linux:
- Start a temporary udevd in the background
- Call udevadm to trigger bringup of all subsystems and devices
- Wait for everything to settle
- Tell temporary udevd to exit (new)
In the world of `mdev` this song and dance act is not required.
