Since both LLVM and gcc supported this for a long time, we are not
adding a fallback compat kludge. And even if there's some relevant
compiler that doesn't know this concept, it'll fail with a compiler
error, and we'll fix it then.
As suggested by @keszybz:

This is primarily useful for debugging, but can be useful for other
purposes too. For example userspace could check whether "auto-windows"
is included in the list, before triggering a boot-into-windows
operation.
The field derives from a file name only in very specific cases, for
many cases it's a fixed string (for example, all "auto-" items are like
this). Also, even when it derives from a file name, it is processed a
bit, as suffixes are removed and the string is converted to lower case.
hence, let's name this field "id" instead, because that's what it is
used for: as general identification token.
Firmware implementations are generally pretty bad, hence let's better
add an explicit check for NULL before invokin FreePool(), in particular
is it doesn't appear to be documented whether FreePool() is supposed to
be happy with NULL.
coverity message:
sign_extension: Suspicious implicit sign extension: "keydata.Key.ScanCode" with type "UINT16" (16 bits, unsigned) is promoted in "keydata.Key.ScanCode << 16" to type "int" (32 bits, signed), then sign-extended to type "unsigned long" (64 bits, unsigned). If "keydata.Key.ScanCode << 16" is greater than 0x7FFFFFFF, the upper bits of the result will all be 1.
This is really confusing, let's try to clean this up a bit, in
particular as there are two very similar concepts:
1. The boot loaders, i.e. the category you find systemd-boot, the
Windows and Apple boot loaders in. These may typically be listed in the
firmware's EFI variables.
2. The boot loader entries, as defined by the Boot Loader Spec. In this
category you find the various Linux kernels that are installed, i.e.
the stuff systemd-boot shows on screen. To make things confusing, the
Windows and Apple boot loaders can appear both as boot loaders and as
boot loader entries.
This tries to establish the following nomenclature: "boot loaders" and
"boot loader entries" for these two concepts.
boot_loader_read_conf(), boot_entries_find(), boot_entries_load_config()
all log their errors internally, hence no need to log a second or third
time about the same error when they return.
We already synchronize all files we write individually, as well as the
directories they are stored in. Let's also synchronize the ESP as a
whole after our work, just in case.
cross building systemd to arm64 presently fails, because the build
system uses plain gcc and plain ld (build architecture compiler and
linker respectively) for building src/boot/efi. These values come from
the efi-cc and efi-ld options respectively. It rather should be using
host tools here.

Back in 08318a2c5a, value "false" was enabled for
'-Dtests=', but various tests were not conditionalized properly. So even with
-Dtests=false -Dslow-tests=false we'd run 120 tests. Let's make this consistent.
On Dell machines LoadOptions is filled with:
01 00 00 00 <name of BIOS Boot Loader Entry> ... <unknown bytes>
So, in case of meaningfull LoadOptions, better check if the first char
is a printable character.
This is a bit like the info link in most of GNU's --help texts, but we
don't do info but man pages, and we make them properly clickable on
terminal supporting that, because awesome.
I think it's generally advisable to link up our (brief) --help texts and
our (more comprehensive) man pages a bit, so this should be an easy and
straight-forward way to do it.
Meson does not care either way, so let's use the simpler syntax. And files()
already gives a list, so nesting this in a list wouldn't be necessary even
if meson did not flatten everything.
$ git grep -e 'This program is free software' -l |grep -v LICENSE | \
xargs perl -i -0pe 's/ \* This program.*?for more details.\s*\*\n( \* You should have.*licenses.>.\n)?//gms'
For some reason they were missed previously. All those files seem to
have proper SDPX tags.
