Introduce a new configuration file /etc/systemd/coredump.conf to
configure when to place coredumps in the journal and when on disk.
Since the coredumps are quite large, default to storing them only on
disk.
greedy_realloc() and greedy_realloc0() now store the allocated
size as the count, not bytes.
Replace GREEDY_REALLOC uses with GREEDY_REALLOC_T everywhere,
and then rename GREEDY_REALLOC_T to GREEDY_REALLOC. It is just
too error-prone to have two slightly different macros which do the
same thing.
Since the invention of read-only memory, write-only memory has been
considered deprecated. Where appropriate, either make use of the
value, or avoid writing it, to make it clear that it is not used.
Make a best-effort attempt to store information about crashes during
failure, currently if these are encountered the crash is completely
silenced.
ideally coredumpctl would show if a coredump is available.
Currently this check happens when the coredump has been collected in
it's entirety and being received by journald. this is not ideal
behaviour when the crashing process is consuming significant percentage
of physical memory such as a large instance of firefox or a java
application.
I typically run VMs with 1024MiB allocated; systemd is unable to write
coredumps in this scenario at all because the default kernel
configuration will only overcommit 50% of available RAM.
Avoid this failure by using a realloc() loop.

New file output.h with output flags and modes.
--full parameter also for cgls and loginctl.
Include 'all' parameter in flags (show_cgroup_by_path, show_cgroup,
show_cgroup_and_extra, show_cgroup_and_extra_by_spec).
get_process_cmdline with max_length == 0 will not ellipsize output.
Replace LINE_MAX with 0 in some calls of get_process_cmdline.
[zj: Default to --full when under pager for clgs.
Drop '-f' since it wasn't documented and didn't actually work.
Reindent a bit.

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
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.
