The old "systemd-import" binary is now an internal tool. We still use it
as asynchronous backend for systemd-importd. Since the import tool might
require some IO and CPU resources (due to qcow2 explosion, and
decompression), and because we might want to run it with more minimal
priviliges we still keep it around as the worker binary to execute as
child process of importd.
machinectl now has verbs for pulling down images, cancelling them and
listing them.
We use PY_LOG_COMPILER in Makefile.am for running *.py tests, which requires
automake's parallel test runner. This has only been the default from 1.13 on.
As we only require automake 1.11, add it as an option explicitly.
Since commit b7e7184 the SysV generator creates symlinks for all "Provides:" in
the LSB header. However, this is too greedy; there are cases where the
creation of a unit .service file fails because of an already existing
symlink with the same name:
- Backup files such as /etc/init.d/foo.bak still have "Provides: foo", and
thus get a foo.service -> foo.bak.service link. foo.bak would not be enabled
in rcN.d/, but we (deliberately) create units for all executables in init.d/
so that a manual "systemctl start" works. If foo.bak is processed before,
the symlink already exists.
- init.d/bar has "Provides: foo", while there also is a real init.d/foo. The
former would create a link foo.service -> bar.service, while the latter
would fail to create the real foo.service.
If we encounter an existing symlink, just remove it before writing a real unit.
Note that two init.d scripts "foo" and "bar" which both provide the same name
"common" already work. The first processed init script wins and creates the
"common.service" symlink, and the second just fails to create the symlink
again. Thus create an additional test case for this to ensure that it keeps
working sensibly.

When deciding whether the provided name equals the file name in
sysv_translate_facility(), also consider them equal if the file name has a
".sh" suffix.
This was uncovered by commit b7e7184 which then created a symlink
"<name>.service" to itself for ".sh" suffixed init.d scripts.
For additional robustness, refuse to create symlinks to itself in add_alias().
Add test case which reproduces the bug.

In case CAP_SYS_ADMIN is missing (like in containers), one cannot fake pid in
struct ucred (uid/gid are fine if CAP_SETUID/CAP_SETGID are present).
Ensure that journald will try again to forward the messages to syslog without
faking the SCM_CREDENTIALS pid (which isn't guaranteed to succeed anyway, since
it also does the same thing if the process has already exited).
With this patch, journald will no longer silently discard messages
that are supposed to be sent to syslog in these situations.

This makes all functions that rely on _filter_units_by_property() (like
_systemctl_{stop,kill,try_restart}) work with unit names that contain backslash
escaped sequences (like automount units with spaces that are escaped to
"\x20").
Drop globbing of rules/*.rules in the rules-test.sh wrapper and move that logic
into the actual test rule-syntax-check.py. This can still be called with
individual rules files, but when being called without arguments it will now
process all top_builddir/rules/*.rules.
Preparation for dropping the shell wrappers altogether.
When we set up a loopback device with partition probing, the udev
"change" event about the configured device is first passed on to
userspace, only the the in-kernel partition prober is started. Since
partition probing fails with EBUSY when somebody has the device open,
the probing frequently fails since udev starts probing/opening the
device as soon as it gets the notification about it, and it might do so
earlier than the kernel probing.
This patch adds a (hopefully temporary) work-around for this, that
compares the number of probed partitions of the kernel with those of
blkid and synchronously asks for reprobing until the numebrs are in
sync.
This really deserves a proper kernel fix.
Plain implies a ... "plain" output.
Also do not say "No jobs" with --no-legend. We skip
reporting the number of jobs with --no-legend if there
are any, and 0 is also a number, and should be skipped.
