The boot loader specification link points to the boot loader interface
documentation.
This fixes the link to point to BOOT_LOADER_SPECIFICATION instead of
BOOTLOADER_INTERFACE which is itself.
This only changes documentation. In various places we call "ninja"
directly. I figured it would be safer to leave those in place for now,
given the meson replacement commands lines appears to be supported in
newer meson versions only.
FixedRandomDelay=yes will use
`siphash24(sd_id128_get_machine() || MANAGER_IS_SYSTEM(m) || getuid() || u->id)`,
where || is concatenation, instead of a random number to choose a value between
0 and RandomizedDelaySec= as the timer delay.
This essentially sets up a fixed, but seemingly random, offset for each timer
iteration rather than having a random offset recalculated each time it fires.
Closes#10355

Primarily:
1. Mention that we prefer if return parameters carry "ret_" as prefix in
their name
2. Clarify that debug-level logging is always OK, and irrelevant to when
deciding whether a function is logging or non-logging.
We have three somewhat separate ideas: what the directory is for, what $TMPDIR is for, and security considerations.
Let's use paragraphs.
Also, conjunctions in titles aren't capitalized usually.
It makes little sense to make the boundary between systemd and user guids
configurable. Nevertheless, a completely fixed compile-time define is not
enough in two scenarios:
- the systemd_uid_max boundary has moved over time. The default used to be
500 for a long time. Systems which are upgraded over time might have users
in the wrong range, but changing existing systems is complicated and
expensive (offline disks, backups, remote systems, read-only media, etc.)
- systems are used in a heterogenous enviornment, where some vendors pick
one value and others another.
So let's make this boundary overridable using /etc/login.defs.
Fixes#3855, #10184.
This means that the dbus doc consistency checks will be enabled by default,
including in the CI. I think that will work better than current state where
people do not enable them and them follow-up patches for the docs like the
parent commit must be had.
With new directive SystemCallLog= it's possible to list system calls to be
logged. This can be used for auditing or temporarily when constructing system
call filters.

v5: drop intermediary, update HASHMAP_FOREACH_KEY() use
v4: skip useless debug messages, actually parse directive
v3: don't declare unused variables with old libseccomp
v2: fix build without seccomp or old libseccomp
Kernel 5.8 gained a hidepid= implementation that is truly per procfs,
which allows us to mount a distinct once into every unit, with
individual hidepid= settings. Let's expose this via two new settings:
ProtectProc= (wrapping hidpid=) and ProcSubset= (wrapping subset=).
