Just in case, ensure the sha256 that is used as a symmetric
key for encrypted creds is safely erased from memory.

This is an another alternative for #40656, based on @poettering's
suggestion to use an ELF section.
The output of --help is generated using format-table, but the details of
the formatting a bit off: different sections in the table (verbs, option
groups) are not aligned to the same column. Our current table formatting
doesn't make this easy. If somebody has an idea how to do this without
too much pain, please make suggestions.
Another thing that I didn't know how to do nicely, was to use the two
columns of separation. But maybe this doesn't matter. If we switch to
one column everywhere, I don't think people will care.
Example output:
```console
$ build/systemd-id128 -h | cat
systemd-id128 [OPTIONS...] COMMAND
Generate and print 128-bit identifiers.
Commands:
new Generate a new ID
machine-id Print the ID of current machine
boot-id Print the ID of current boot
invocation-id Print the ID of current invocation
var-partition-uuid Print the UUID for the /var/ partition
show [NAME|UUID] Print one or more UUIDs
help Show this help
Options:
-h --help Show this help
--version Show package version
--no-pager Do not start a pager
--no-legend Do not show headers and footers
--json=FORMAT Output inspection data in JSON (takes one of pretty,
short, off)
-j Equivalent to --json=pretty (on TTY) or --json=short
(otherwise)
-p --pretty Generate samples of program code
-P --value Only print the value
-a --app-specific=ID Generate app-specific IDs
-u --uuid Output in UUID format
See the systemd-id128(1) man page for details.
```
The output wraps automatically with terminal width. If the terminal is
extremely narrow, ellipsization occurs. I think this doesn't matter
and/or is actually a feature. Such narrow terminals mostly occur in
testing, so it doesn't matter what exactly we do, as long as it is
something somewhat reasonable.
Anyway, I think this is enough as PoC. Please compare this with the
previous approach. /cc @behrmann, @YHNdnzj, @poettering
The three binaries that are converted have options, verbs, optional
arguments, and options terminate option parsing, so most of the
functionality is there. One thing that I didn't implement that was
present in previous PRs is "namespaces", i.e. multiple parsers in the
same source file. I expect that we can handle this similarly to option
groups.

This feel a bit like a hack, but it works OK. The width of the first
column of verbs or options in different sections is measured and
applied to the other tables. This makes the second column aligned.

networkctl previously called networkd over D-Bus for several operations.
This replaces all of those calls with Varlink, making it the sole IPC
mechanism between networkctl and networkd.
New Varlink methods added to networkd:
- io.systemd.Network.Link (new sub-interface for link-specific
operations):
- Link.Describe — replaces Link.BitRates + DHCPServer.Leases D-Bus
properties
- Link.Up — replaces Link.SetUp D-Bus method (moved from
**io.systemd.Network.LinkUp**)
- Link.Down — replaces Link.SetDown D-Bus method (moved from
**io.systemd.Network.LinkDown**)
- Link.Renew — replaces Link.Renew D-Bus method
- Link.ForceRenew — replaces Link.ForceRenew D-Bus method
- Link.Reconfigure — replaces Link.Reconfigure D-Bus method
- io.systemd.service
- Reload — replaces Manager.Reload D-Bus method
Supporting changes:
- link_get_bit_rates() extracted from networkd-link.c into
networkd-speed-meter.c
- BitRates added to link_build_json() so Link.Describe returns them
inline
alongside the existing interface description, replacing a separate D-Bus
read
- link_reconfigure_full() and manager_reload() extended to accept
sd_varlink*
for deferred async replies (consistent with existing sd_bus_message*
path)
- DHCP lease display (networkctl status) uses Link.Describe instead of
DHCPServer.Leases; falls back to ClientId when hostname is not present
This is not actually used so it doesn't really matter in
practice and the fields are used anyway, but for cleanliness
fix it

systemd now has a system call wrapper that does a long series of #ifdef's to
differentiate between architectures and ABIs. This wrapper has two problems.
1. On mips, it needs to differentiate between O32, N32, N64 ABI. It does that
via a code block in src/include/override/sys/generate-syscall.py (and derived
files):
76 # elif defined(_MIPS_SIM)
77 # if _MIPS_SIM == _MIPS_SIM_ABI32
78 # define systemd_NR_{syscall} {nr_mipso32}
79 # elif _MIPS_SIM == _MIPS_SIM_NABI32
80 # define systemd_NR_{syscall} {nr_mips64n32}
81 # elif _MIPS_SIM == _MIPS_SIM_ABI64
82 # define systemd_NR_{syscall} {nr_mips64}
83 # else
84 # error "Unknown MIPS ABI"
85 # endif
86 # elif defined(__hppa__)
Now the _MIPS_SIM* constants stem from a vendor-specific header file sgidefs.h,
which is included with glibc, but not with musl. It is however always present
in the Linux kernel headers as asm/sgidefs.h ...
2. To work around this, the syscall wrapper already has a block
47 #ifdef ARCH_MIPS
48 #include <asm/sgidefs.h>
49 #endif
Turns out, ARCH_MIPS is defined nowhere in Gentoo, neither on glibc nor on musl.
As a result the code (by accident, probably sgidefs.h is included transitively
somehow) works on glibc, but not on musl.
The simplest fix is to replace line 47 in the generator and the derived file
with
47 #ifdef __mips__
Two other source code files require a similar fix since they rely on the
constants.

The commit 6d7cb9a6b8 fixes the assignment
of the these options when specified through SendOption=. However, it
breaks when specified through UserClass= or SendVendorOption=.
When UserClass= or SendVendorOption= is specified, the option length is
calculated from the sd_dhcp_client.user_class or .vendor_options. Hence,
we can use 0 for the length in that case.

clang says:
src/dissect/dissect.c:292:17: warning: label followed by a declaration is a C23 extension [-Wc23-extensions]
Another option would be to raise the C standard to C23. I think that'd
make sense, but it's better to do it separately.
Some cosmetic differences in descriptions are made.
--quiet was miscategorized as a command (172fadda65),
--usr-hash and --usr-hash-sig were not listed (10b8d65f3f).
The behaviour that was implemented in systemd-dissect was that
both '--exec -- cmd' and '--exec cmd' result in 'cmd' as the command,
and '--' anywhere later is as a positional argument, so nesting is
possible, e.g.:
--exec -- cmd --opt -- another-cmd --another-opt
This is not obvious, so add some tests for this and keep it as a separate
commit.
Add tests for OPTION_STOPS_PARSING, OPTION_GROUP_MARKER, and
OPTION_OPTIONAL_ARG flags with manual Option arrays, and a separate
test exercising the OPTION, OPTION_LONG, OPTION_SHORT, OPTION_FULL,
and OPTION_GROUP macros via FOREACH_OPTION_FULL in a switch statement,
as they would be used in real code.

This commit allows unset pidref when calling manager_log_caller().
With that we can log manager calls even if we cannot resolve the
caller. Currently when we cannot resolve the caller we are just
not logging anything. With this commit we at least log the call
(even though we don't know what caller it was).
Thanks to keszybz for the suggestion.
Extract a common helper varlink_log_caller() and use in the varlink
code when logging the caller of a method. It also logs the method
now that was tried (but failed) to be logged with log_notice just
like manager_log_caller() would do.
I was looking into modifying `manager_log_caller` instead and
accept a NULL pidref but could not log more than the method without
pidref and would make the manager_log_caller slightly less nice.
Thanks to keszybz for suggesting this.
This adds the low-level io.systemd.Manager shutdown support. This
is (much) simpler than the logind one. It mimics dbus but uses
a shared helper for the simple cases.
Note that this is more restrictive than the dbus version. The
dbus version uses SD_BUS_VTABLE_CAPABILITY(CAP_SYS_BOOT) but
the varlink version uses varlink_check_privileged_peer(link).
This is mostly because I'm not sure how to do the equivalent
in a race-free way.
Thanks to Daan for suggesting this.
dns_packet_unref() unconditionally unrefs p->more on every call,
even when n_ref > 1. But dns_packet_ref() doesn't ref p->more.
This means if a packet with a ->more chain gets ref'd and unref'd
multiple times, the chain gets freed too early while the parent
still holds a dangling pointer.
Move the p->more unref into the n_ref == 1 block so the chain
only gets cleaned up when the packet is actually being freed.
Call client_stop() on error and return 0 only on callback.
Normal non-callback functions should propagate errors.
This also makes client_initialize_time_events() use
event_reset_time_relative().
FORCERENEW message support has been disabled so long time for security
concern. Most other implementations of DHCP server/client neither
support FORCERENEW. Let's completely drop relevant code.
