The CLI defaults --make-entry-directory to off and lets callers opt in
or request auto mode. The Varlink Install method always ran in auto
mode with no way to override it. Expose the tri-state so IPC callers
can match the CLI behaviour.
The CLI verbs have --esp-path/--boot-path but the Varlink methods
always auto-discover the partitions, so callers that mount the ESP
or XBOOTLDR at a non-standard location have to fall back to the
SYSTEMD_ESP_PATH/SYSTEMD_XBOOTLDR_PATH environment variables.
Allow to specify the paths when calling Install/Unlink/Link/LinkAuto
so the Varlink API is on par with the CLI.
Add a TEST-87 testcase exercising "bootctl link-auto" and the equivalent
io.systemd.BootControl.LinkAuto() Varlink method: a UKI plus extras are staged
below the search directories and we assert the kernel and sidecar resources
are linked into $BOOT. Covered: plain kernel.efi + extras.d/, versioned
kernel.efi.v/ and extras .v/ resolved via vpick, directory priority
(/etc wins over /run), the no-op case when nothing is staged, and the Varlink
method including its empty reply when there is nothing to link.
This irked me for a while. Let's not scan for strings stupidly, but
properly parse PE files to find the magic marker.
It's easy with our own PE APIs, hence we should do it.
This moves logging to the callers (previously, this was all mixed up).
Let's pick up all kinds of sidecars and show them, not just addons
This also fixes some issues regarding "root" directory handling.
In one context we'd resolve a directory claiming it was a "root", but it
wasn't.

When a TTY is attached to the test unit, grep -q will generate SIGPIPE
for the previous command in the pipeline which in combo with `pipefail`
will cause the command to fail with exit status 141 which will fail the
test.
Replace with >/dev/null to avoid this from happening.

Let's reduce our attack surface by insisting that XBOOTLDR is vfat when
auto-probing, just like we do for the ESP. Given neither can
realistically be integrity protected (because firmware needs to access
them) let's insist on a vfat which has a much smaller attack surface,
and one we have to accept (for now) anyway, given that the ESP must be
VFAT.
This only applies to auto-probing of course. If people mount things
explicitly via fstab none of this matters. But we really shouldn't
automount a btrfs/xfs/ext4 partition as XBOOTLDR just because it looks
like one, as that would really defeat our otherwise possibly very strict
image policies.
This also introduces a new env var $SYSTEMD_DISSECT_FSTYPE_<DESIGNATOR>
environment variable that may override this hardcoding. This is in
particular useful in our testcases, since various actually do use ext4
as XBOOTLDR case. The tests are updated to make use of the new env var,
both as a mechanism to test this and to keep the tests working.
Otherwise, if a test in a spurious state, it consumes quite long time.
Let's fail earlier in such case.
This also drops an unnecessary calls of 'udevadm settle' in
testcase_nvme_basic() of TEST-64-UDEV-STORAGE.
TEST-74-AUX-UTILS covers many subtests, as it's a catch-all job, and a few
need a VM to run. The job is thus marked VM-only. But that means in settings
where we can't run VM tests (no KVM available), the entire thing is skipped,
losing tons of coverage that doesn't need skipping.
Move the VM-only subtests to TEST-87-AUX-UTILS-VM that is configured to only
run in VMs under both runners. This way we keep the existing tests as-is, and
we can add new VM-only tests without worrying. This is how the rest of the
tests are organized.
