This patch refactors svc.c into two files: svc.c now as a low-level
svc_t API and service.c for the more advanced rest.

Lots of cleanup and simplification of the main code in this commit.
Most notably libev has been added to take care of the main loop and
monitor services. Still TODO is migrating to use the libev signal
handling.
Convert initctl.c:listen_initctl() to a plugin instead. This also
meant introducing a new form of I/O plugin to finit, also handled
by libev.
Load plugins *after* we've setup the base filesystem (BASEFS) in case
plugins reside on a filesystem not reachable before "mount -a" has run.
This also has the side effect of lining up nicely with the first level
plugin hooks.
If a plugin wants to hook up with a loded service we connect them by
their respective numeric IDs in plugin_register(). I.e., the service
monitor checks if a service has a registered callback, which in turn
decides if a service should be started, stopped or reloaded.
Rip out old EeePC distribution defines from finit.h, none of it really
applies anymore. If you need distribution specific settings this is
the place to put them.
Make hookpoint names (#defines) clearer: after BASEFS, after networking,
after all setup, etc.
Use #inlude_next <signal.h> in signal.h to include system header file!
Simplify service monitor: move essential code to svc.c and rip out
the TIPC dependency. Write your own service.so plugin, or wait for
a more complete example of how to extend service monitoring using
the primitives in svc.c

finit.conf:
Use this as /etc/finit.conf on a Debian 6.0 based system with X
installed and sysklogd instead of rsyslogd. Works.
services:
Alternative method for extending the finit boot procedure. Simply
place this script file in an /etc/finit.d/ directory. The script
uses the standard run-parts tool to chain load other start scripts.
helpers.c:
o New functions:
- run(): home grown system() replacement
- run_interactive(): display progress and status when called
o Bugfix start_process(), make sure to use same signal setup for
children as in run() and run_interactive(). Also, use execvp()
instead of execv() to allow searching $PATH for executables.
finit.h:
o Move signal specific code to new signal.h.
o Bypass verbosity setting to let echo() always print to screen.
finit.c:
o Make run_parts() the default, remove external deps, it works.
o Use run() and run_interactive() to speed up execution further
on embedded systems where forking is expensive.
o Kernel cmdline "quiet" should not close STDIO since this makes
it impossible to run some daemons and start scripts. Instead,
we let "quiet" toggle the finit verbosity setting.
o Remove kernel cmdline "--verbose" (Upstart compat), to be used
to enable verbose finit when kernel should be quiet.
o Setup kernel specific settings in /etc/sysctl.conf
o Fix D-Bus startup problems. Probably what caused X from not
working initially. Silly rabbit.
o Use system() workaround to start X, cannot get it to start
at all using run() or run_interactive() at the moment.
signal.h:
New file, header file for signal.c. Was about time.
signal.c:
Remove blocking of SIGCHLD from sig_setup(), instead we setup
SIGCHLD early in sig_init() to handle fork() in run() & C:o.

finit.c:
o New service and shell_service stanzas for finit.conf
o Run service_startup() before /etc/finit.d/ hooks
o Run service_monitor() at end of startup
helpers.c:
o Several new functions:
- print_desc() displays a service starting up
- print_result() shows if service started OK or not
- start_process() is used by the services framework
svc.c:
Generic API for managing svc_t structures
ipc.o:
TIPC based framework for communicating with the service monitor.
E.g., to relay (re)configuration signals from a Web/CLI
front-end via finit to one or many setup daemons, and back.
services.c:
Service monitor framework
strlcpy.c:
Secure strncpy() replacement from OpenBSD under the free ISC License.
