This adds a per-cell option for uppercasing displayed strings.
Implicitly turn this on for the header row. The fact that we format the
table header in uppercase is a formatting thing after all, hence should
be applied by the formatter, i.e. the table display code.
Moreover, this provides us with the benefit that we can more nicely
reuse the specified table headers as JSON field names, like we already
do: json field names are usually not uppercase.
Since .timespan and .timestamp are unionized on top of each other this
doesn't actually matter, but it is still more correct to address it
under it's correct name.
This is in many cases redundant, as a similar check is done by various
callers already, but in other cases (where we read the color from a
static table for example), it's nice to let the color check be done by
the table code itself, and since it doesn't hurt in the other cases just
do it again.
This doesn't have much effect on the final build, because we link libbasic.a
into libsystemd-shared.so, so in the end, all the object built from basic/
end up in libsystemd-shared. And when the static library is linked into binaries,
any objects that are included in it but are not used are trimmed. Hence, the
size of output artifacts doesn't change:
$ du -sb /var/tmp/inst*
54181861 /var/tmp/inst1 (old)
54207441 /var/tmp/inst1s (old split-usr)
54182477 /var/tmp/inst2 (new)
54208041 /var/tmp/inst2s (new split-usr)
(The negligible change in size is because libsystemd-shared.so is bigger
by a few hundred bytes. I guess it's because symbols are named differently
or something like that.)
The effect is on the build process, in particular partial builds. This change
effectively moves the requirements on some build steps toward the leaves of the
dependency tree. Two effects:
- when building items that do not depend on libsystemd-shared, we
build less stuff for libbasic.a (which wouldn't be used anyway,
so it's a net win).
- when building items that do depend on libshared, we reduce libbasic.a as a
synchronization point, possibly allowing better parallelism.
Method:
1. copy list of .h files from src/basic/meson.build to /tmp/basic
2. $ for i in $(grep '.h$' /tmp/basic); do echo $i; git --no-pager grep "include \"$i\"" src/basic/ 'src/lib*' 'src/nss-*' 'src/journal/sd-journal.c' |grep -v "${i%.h}.c";echo ;done | less
