We often have a pattern where the same verb function is used for
multiple actions. This leads to an antipattern where we figure out what
action needs to be taken from argv[0] multiple times: often once in
parse_argv() to figure out what options are allowed, then once again
implicitly in dispatch_verb(), and then again in the action verb itself.
Let's allow passing a parameter into the verb to simplify this.
This matches a pattern we have in conf-parser.h, where we have both
void *userdata (more global) and void *data (per-config item). Here,
I opted for uintptr_t userdata. It seems that most of the time we'll
want to just pass an enum value. This works OK with no casts. I also
tried a void* and union. In both cases, much more boilerplate is needed:
either a cast or a macro to help avoid compiler warnings. uintptr_t
seems generic enough to cover foreseeable usecases with no fuss.
This is a noop refactoring. See next commit for an example.
These operations to quite different things, they just share 2 common
funcs. Let's split them out into separate files.
This also splits up verb_list() into separate calls for the three
operations. This actually fixes issues, as for status/list we want
"unpriv" ESP discovery logic, but for the other two we really should
have privileged discovery logic.
This is preparation for adding "bootctl link" later, but this makes
sense either way, I am sure.
