udev 131

Bugfixes.
Bugfixes. (And probably new bugs. :))
The rule matching engine got converted from a rule list to a token
array which reduced the in-memory rules representation of a full
featured distros with thousends of rules from 1.2MB to 0.17 MB.
The limit of 5 ENV and ATTR matches, and a single instance for most
other keys per rule is gone with the new parser.
The NAME assignment is no longer special cased. If later rules assign
a NAME value again, the former value will be overwritten. As usual
for most other keys, the NAME value can be protected by doing a final
assignment with NAME:="<value>".
Many thanks to Alan Jenkins for finding and optimizing some of the
computing expensive parts.
