Not everybody has those dirs in the filesystem (and they don't need to).
When creating an installation package using $DESTDIR, it is easy enough to
remove or ignore those directories, but if installing into a real root, it
is ugly to create and remove them. Let's add an option so people can skip
it if they want.
Inspired by #12930.
This call can be useful even if a server object is declared.
(Originally this was not supported, because a server typically needs to
handle multiple connections, and thus a synchronous wait on one would
starve the others out. But in some cases it might make sense to have
varlink point-to-point connections — i.e. where the server only handles
a single connection ever — and there it makes sense to synchronously
wait on the one connection).
Before only one comparison was allowed. Let's make this more flexible:
ConditionKernelVersion = ">=4.0" "<=4.5"
Fixes#12881.
This also fixes expressions like "ConditionKernelVersion=>" which would
evaluate as true.
This partially reverts 25de7aa7b9. I don't think the
change was intended there.
The problem I'm trying to solve: for /dev/kvm we get first an ADD uevent, and
then CHANGE whenever something connects or disconnects to the character device.
The rules in 50-default-udev.rules set UID, GID, and MODE on ADD, but not on
CHANGE. When the change event happens, we would reset the ownership and
permissions.
This happens because node_permissions_apply() would (after 25de7aa7b9)
set uid=gid=0 if they weren't set by the rules.
So let's only pass uid/gid/mode to node_permissions_apply() if appropriately
configured. Also let node_permissions_apply() do the skip of uid/gid/mode if
not set, and rename "always_apply" to more closely reflect its meaning.
It is pretty hard to figure out what the problem actually is, esp. when the rule
is long.

Whenever I see EXTRACT_QUOTES, I'm always confused whether it means to
leave the quotes in or to take them out. Let's say "unquote", like we
say "cunescape".
This reverts a part of commit 49fe5c0996 ('tree-wide: port various places
over to STARTSWITH_SET()') that replaced a pair of startswith() calls
with STARTSWITH_SET().
They were in fact for a different strings (device vs. name), botching
the crypttap parsing.
Previous code was allocating an array of iovecs big enough to store all the
fields added later by various functions.
This forced us to calculate the size of the array in advance which is too error
prone if for example one wants to add new fields or simply rework the
code. Various assertions were added to make sure there's no overflow but it's
still more code for no good reasons.
Instead, this patch switches to the new iovec array handling interface so the
array is grown dynamically when needed.
The other contraint was that some iovecs were supposed to be freed whereas some
others were not. This makes the code hard to (re)organize. The new code always
allocates fields so it becomes easier to rework the code.
