Check whether the argument of the `--background` option of
`systemd-run`, `run0`, `systemd-nspawn`, `systemd-vmspawn`, and
`systemd-pty-forward` is either empty or looks like an ANSI color code,
and reject invalid values when parsing arguments.
We consider a string to look like an ANSI color code if it consists of
one or more sequences of ASCII digits separated by semicolons. This
permits every valid ANSI color code, and should reject anything that
results in garbled output.
When varlink parameters are empty, omit the "parameters" field entirely
rather than sending "parameters":{}. This reduces message size and
follows varlink specification which allows parameters to be omitted.
The implementation supports three equivalent representations for empty
parameters: field omission, JSON null, and empty object {}. All three
are accepted on input for backward compatibility.

Let's not leak details from src/shared and src/libsystemd into
src/basic, even though you can't actually do anything useful with
just forward declarations from src/shared.
The sd-forward.h header is put in src/libsystemd/sd-common as we
don't have a directory for shared internal headers for libsystemd
yet.
Let's also rename forward.h to basic-forward.h to keep things
self-explanatory.
Those were added before 0.61 which is our minimum version.
Dots were dropped from the end of some messages. Most messages did not have the
trailing dot.
0.63 added support for multi-line f-strings. We can't use those yet.
glibc (and also musl, though we do not officially support it yet)
silently ignores colon prefix in $TZ. Let's always not prefix the
timezone.
tzset(3) states:
> A nonempty value of TZ can be one of two formats, either of which can
> be preceded by a colon which is ignored.

Previously, an input string ends with short timezone spec e.g. WET,
was parsed by setting $TZ environment variable to the timezone.
But the timezone might be different from the original local timezone,
thus the result might not follow the timezone change in the original
local timezone.
This makes the check of the short timezone spec with tzname[] earlier,
then it is not necessary to load another timezone file for e.g. WET,
and provides expected time.
This also make it use SAVE_TIMEZONE macro and drop use of forking
process. This makes greatly improve performance when parsing string
that contains timezone different from the current local timezone.
Unfortunately, there is still one corner case that our test fails.
When tzdata is built with rearguard enabled, then at least
Africa/Windhoek timezone does not provide correct time, but time shifted
1 hour from the original.
This is also preparation for the installer later, split out of #38764.
It makes the experience a lot nicer if our nice little tools aren't
constantly interrupted by log spew from the kernel.
Fixes: #34448
For "wizard" style interactive tools it's very annoying if they are
interrupted by kernel log output or PID1's status output. let's add some
infra to disable this temporarily. I decided to implement this as an IPC
service so that we can make this robust: if the client request the
muting dies we can automatically unmute again.
This is hence a tiny varlink service, but it can also be started
directly from the cmdline.
Except for the test, bpf_firewall_compile() is only called by the following:
cgroup_context_apply() -> cgroup_apply_firewall() -> bpf_firewall_compile()
and in the early stage of cgroup_context_apply(), it checks if the cgroup
runtime exists. Hence, it is not necessary to try to allocate the
runtime in bpf_firewall_compile().
Let's rename the existing partition_verity_to_data() to
partition_verity_hash_to_data() and make a new partition_verity_to_data() that
handles both verity hash and verity signature partitions.
Rename other functions to match the new naming.
I initially didn't think it would be worth doing this, but I changed my
mind. People out there quite successfully build systemd without ACL
support, and that suggests life without it is quite possible. Moreover
we only use it as very specific places:
1. in udev/logind for "uaccess" mgmt
2. in tmpfiles to implement explicitly configured acl changes
3. in journald/coredump/pstore to manage access to unpriv users
4. in pid1 to manage access to credential files
5. when shifting UIDs of container trees
I specific container environments it should be entirely fine to live without all
of these, hence let's pull this in on demand only.
test-shift-uid.c doesn't actually use anything from libacl. It all goes
through shared/, and the dep there is enough.
Same for the coredump stuffi, logind and core/.
And pstore doesn't use it at all, neither directly or indirectly.
So far, when outputing information about copy progress we'd suppress the
digit after the dot if it is zero. That makes the progress bar a bit
"jumpy", because sometimes there are two more character cells used than
other times. Let's just always output one digit after the dot here
hence, to avoid this.
