We finally got the OK from all contributors with non-trivial commits to
relicense systemd from GPL2+ to LGPL2.1+.
Some udev bits continue to be GPL2+ for now, but we are looking into
relicensing them too, to allow free copy/paste of all code within
systemd.
The bits that used to be MIT continue to be MIT.
The big benefit of the relicensing is that closed source code may now
link against libsystemd-login.so and friends.
For clean session endings ask logind explicitly to get rid of the FIFO
before closing it so that the FIFO logic doesn't result in su/sudo to be
terminated immediately.

This introduces the new PAM environment variable XDG_SESSION_CLASS. If
not set, defaults to "user".
This is useful for apps that want to distuingish real user logins from
"fake" ones which just exist to show a gdm login screen or a lock
screen.
Fixes segfault in systemd-logind, triggered by:
systemd-loginctl show-session $XDG_SESSION_ID.
Bug introduced by d200735e13,
so only systemd v39 is affected.
We need to tell the X server to grab the keyboards
and mice associated with a hotplugged seat, so that
it doesn't have the ability to control the kernel
vt consoles.
In preparation for https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=655380 we
decided it's better to include the multi-seat X wrapper in systemd,
rather than gdm. (Side effect: this makes this accessible for other
DMs)
This is a stop-gap for now, until X gins proper multi-seat graphics
support at which point this code will go away without replacement.
The way the various properties[] arrays are initialized is inefficient:
- only the .data members change at runtime, yet the whole arrays of
properties with all the fields are constructed on the stack one by
one by the code.
- there's duplication, eg. the properties of "org.freedesktop.systemd1.Unit"
are repeated in several unit types.
Fix it by moving the information about properties into static const
sections. Instead of storing the .data directly in the property, store
a constant offset from a run-time base.
The small arrays of struct BusBoundProperties bind together the constant
information with the right runtime information (the base pointer).
On my system the code shrinks by 60 KB, data increases by 10 KB.
