The function was partially implementing chroot lookups. It would be given
file names that were prefixed with the chroot, so it would mostly work.
But if any of those files were symlinks, fopen() would do the wrong thing.
Also we don't need locking.
So give 'root' as the argument and use chase_and_fopen_unlocked() to get
proper chroot-aware lookups.
The only place where config_parse_many() is called with root is is repart.c.
So this is a follow-up for e594a3b154 and
34f2fd5096.
This essentially reverts 5656cdfeea. I find it
much easier to understand what is going on when the
path-relative-to-the-search-path is passed in full, instead of being constructed
from two parts, with one of the parts being implicit in some places.
Also, we call 'systemd-analyze cat-config <path>' with <path> with the same
meaning, so this makes the internal and external APIs more consistent.

Before the offending commits, we only read the first found
main config file. If the main config file is symlinked to/as
a drop-in, we should break instead of continuing, for it to
be read later.
This compresses repetetive code and makes it easier to add new options
in networkd. The formatting of error messages becomes uniform. The
error message always specifies the rvalue literally, instead of using
a "descriptive name". This makes the message much easier to handle for
the user.
I opted to add just one parser, and wrap it with inline functions to proxy
the type. This is less verbose than copying functions for each type
separately, and the compiler should be able to get rid of the inline wrapper
almost entirely.
asserts are reordered to use the same order as the parameter list.
This makes the code easier to read.
No functional change intended, apart from the difference in error message
formatting.
Otherwise we'll skip parsing main config directly.
Replaces #27152
Replaces #28956:
chase() is an overkill for determining whether
two files are the same. We only need to check
if the inodes are the same.
No functional change. In config_parse_address_generation_type() we would set
the output parameter and then say it's ignored, so it _looked_ like an error in
the code, but the variable was always initialized to SD_ID128_NULL anyway, so
the code was actually fine.
All daemons use a similar scheme to read their main config files and theirs
drop-ins. The main config files are always stored in /etc/systemd directory and
it's easy enough to construct the name of the drop-in directories based on the
name of the main config file.
Hence the new helper does that internally, which allows to reduce and simplify
the args passed previously to config_parse_many_nulstr().
Besides the overall code simplification it results:
16 files changed, 87 insertions(+), 159 deletions(-)
it allows to identify clearly the locations in the code where configuration
files are parsed.
The name "def.h" originates from before the rule of "no needless abbreviations"
was established. Let's rename the file to clarify that it contains a collection
of various semi-related constants.
When the the iterator variable is declared automatically, it "inherits" the
const/non-const status from the argument. We don't need to cast a const
table to non-const. If we had a programming error and tried to modify the
string, the compiler could now catch this.
This is a high-level function, and it belongs in libsystemd-shared. This way we
don't end up linking a separate copy into various binaries. It would even end
up in libsystemd, where it is not needed. (Maybe it'd be removed in some
optimization phase, but it's better to not rely on that.)

This helper is just like config_parse_string() but does some superficial
checks for control characters and quotes.
In most cases we currently use config_parse_string() we probably want to
use config_parse_safe_string() for safety reasons.
