Back in 2007, commit 0c97c9d437 ("'simple' error message functions by
Loic Grenie") introduced bb_simple_perror_msg() to allow for a lower
overhead call to bb_perror_msg() when only a string was being printed
with no parameters. This saves space for some CPU architectures because
it avoids the overhead of a call to a variadic function. However there
has never been a simple version of bb_error_msg(), and since 2007 many
new calls to bb_perror_msg() have been added that only take a single
parameter and so could have been using bb_simple_perror_message().
This changeset introduces 'simple' versions of bb_info_msg(),
bb_error_msg(), bb_error_msg_and_die(), bb_herror_msg() and
bb_herror_msg_and_die(), and replaces all calls that only take a
single parameter, or use something like ("%s", arg), with calls to the
corresponding 'simple' version.
Since it is likely that single parameter calls to the variadic functions
may be accidentally reintroduced in the future a new debugging config
option WARN_SIMPLE_MSG has been introduced. This uses some macro magic
which will cause any such calls to generate a warning, but this is
turned off by default to avoid use of the unpleasant macros in normal
circumstances.
This is a large changeset due to the number of calls that have been
replaced. The only files that contain changes other than simple
substitution of function calls are libbb.h, libbb/herror_msg.c,
libbb/verror_msg.c and libbb/xfuncs_printf.c. In miscutils/devfsd.c,
networking/udhcp/common.h and util-linux/mdev.c additonal macros have
been added for logging so that single parameter and multiple parameter
logging variants exist.
The amount of space saved varies considerably by architecture, and was
found to be as follows (for 'defconfig' using GCC 7.4):
Arm: -92 bytes
MIPS: -52 bytes
PPC: -1836 bytes
x86_64: -938 bytes
Note that for the MIPS architecture only an exception had to be made
disabling the 'simple' calls for 'udhcp' (in networking/udhcp/common.h)
because it made these files larger on MIPS.

Between Busybox 1.24.2 and 1.25.0 the bb_info_msg() function was
eliminated and calls to it changed to be bb_error_msg(). The downside of
this is that daemons now log all messages to syslog at the LOG_ERR level
which makes it hard to filter errors from informational messages.
This change optionally re-introduces bb_info_msg(), controlled by a new
option FEATURE_SYSLOG_INFO, restores all the calls to bb_info_msg() that
were removed (only in applets that set logmode to LOGMODE_SYSLOG or
LOGMODE_BOTH), and also changes informational messages in ifplugd and
ntpd.
The code size change of this is as follows (using 'defconfig' on x86_64
with gcc 7.3.0-27ubuntu1~18.04)

then when FEATURE_SYSLOG_INFO is disabled Busybox actually gets smaller:

This reverts "udhcpc: paranoia when using kernel UDP mode
for sending renew: server ID may be bogus".
Users complain that they do have servers behind routers

With new code, we request that target IP (server ID) must be directly reachable.
If it's not, this happens:
udhcpc: waiting 2000 seconds
udhcpc: entering listen mode: kernel
udhcpc: opening listen socket on *:68 wlan0
udhcpc: entering renew state
udhcpc: sending renew to 1.1.1.1
udhcpc: send: Network is unreachable
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 1.1.1.1 needs routing, this is fishy!
udhcpc: entering rebinding state
udhcpc: entering listen mode: raw
udhcpc: created raw socket
udhcpc: sending renew to 0.0.0.0
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ going to use broadcast
which is the desired behavior. Before the patch, packet to 1.1.1.1 was routed
over eth0 (!) and maybe even into Internet (!!!).

I see random field values like sll_hatype=0x267 when I strace.
They seem to not matter, but just in case they sometimes do,
let's at least have deterministic values (via memset(0)).

Commit b8b72f02 removed all padding from DHCP packets
to fix operation with buggy servers which can't handle
maximum sized packets. But it introduced a regression
with buggy routers which drop DHCP packets smaller
than 300 bytes (i.e. 342 byte ethernet packets).
Add back some padding to work around.
