also a number of minor fixups and bug fixes: spelling, oom errors
that didn't print errors, not properly forwarding error codes,
few more consistency issues, et cetera
glibc/glib both use "out of memory" consistantly so maybe we should
consider that instead of this.
Eliminates one string out of a number of binaries. Also fixes extra newline
in udev/scsi_id
A problem with systemd-tmpfiles has been observed where the service
failed just because one of the configuration directories could not be
read due to SELinux policy.
Complain about the failure, but try to go on.

There are other reasons for not opening the pager then the --no-pager
or --follow options (described below). If the pager is not used,
messages must be ellipsized.

When showing the journal through "journalctl --no-pager", if the
prefix of the log message (i.e. the date and syslog identifier) is
less than 3 characters shorter than the width of the terminal, you
get:
Assertion 'new_length >= 3' failed at src/shared/util.c:3859, function ellipsize_mem(). Aborting.
because there is not enough space for the "...". This patch add the
necessary check.
#pragma once has been "un-deprecated" in gcc since 3.3, and is widely supported
in other compilers.
I've been using and maintaining (rebasing) this patch for a while now, as
it annoyed me to see #ifndef fooblahfoo, etc all over the place,
almost arrogant about the annoyance of having to define all these names to
perform a commen but neccicary functionality, when a completely superior
alternative exists.
I havn't sent it till now, cause its kindof a style change, and it is bad
voodoo to mess with style that has been established by more established
editors. So feel free to lambast me as a crazy bafoon.
v2 - preserve externally used headers
If a pager is used, ellipsization is redundant — the pager does
that better by hiding the part that cannot be shown. Pager's advantage
is that the user can press → to view the hidden part of a message,
and then ← to return.
This adds a timeout if the TTY cannot be acquired and makes sure we
always output the question to the console, never to the TTY of the
respective service.
This makes sure that
systemctl status /home
is implicitly translated to:
systemctl status /home.mount
Similar, /dev/foobar becomes dev-foobar.device.
Also, all characters that cannot be part of a unit name are implicitly
escaped.
