Joachim Wiberg c20d64587c conf: relocate global state from legacy parser
Relocate process-wide global variables from legacy parser that ended up
there because it used to be conf.c, but which is now now frozen at the
4.x feature set.  Each variable is moved to their respective "owner".

Give cgroup_current[] and cgroup_settings_current[] named bounds.  Their
extern declarations were unsized, so sizeof() on them stopped compiling
once the definitions moved to another translation unit.

Finit can run on various Linux distributions, but the bundled install scripts are examples only. They have been tested on amd64 (x86_64) systems with standard configurations.

For embedded systems, see these Buildroot-based examples: myLinux, Infix, or br2-finit-demo.
