In the hwclock, procfs and sysfs service scripts, we automatically
attempt to load the kernel modules we need before we take any action. We
shouldn't do this, because there are systems which do not use kernel
modules and do not have the kmod package installed.
With this change, we continue to load the modules ourselves, but we warn
the admin that they need to be added to /etc/conf.d/modules or built
into the kernel.
In the future, this automatic loading will be dropped.

When we use the --utc or --localtime switch, also use --noadjfile if it
is available. This means hwclock will not use a drift file.

In the past, OpenRC was a hybrid of a centralized and file-scope
license/copyright structure.
I followed the instructions from the Software Freedom Law Center [1] to
convert to a Centralized structure where possible, for easier future
maintenance.

This adds the -systemd-nspawn keyword to service scripts which are not
intended to run in systemd-nspawn containers.
This fixes#52.

The hwclock service should set the time zone regardless of the setting
of the clock_hctosys variable. This needs to be done to prevent issues
when the system time is being synchronized using ntp.

This was requested by Debian, because the minicom software, which is
available on Debian and other distros, has a binary named runscript. We
are keeping a backward compatibility symlink for now, but this allows
Debian or any other distro to safely remove the symlink.

SBINDIR and BINDIR can be set independently of PREFIX. This fixes
broken shebangs in service files when SBINDIR is set to something other
than PREFIX/sbin

Previously, the default on linux systems was to not set the hardware
clock to match the system clock during shutdown.
This changes that default to be consistent with *bsd and swclock.
The clock_hctosys and clock_systohc settings really do not have anything
to do with running an ntp daemon, so remove that reference from the
documentation.

We need to set the timezone for the system clock even when we allow the
kernel to set the time.

This commit adds the clock_hctosys option which is used to skip setting
the system clock on boot and can be used with a modern linux kernel
which has the CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS option set to y.
I would like to thank Dimitris Mandalidis for the report and for the
patch to baselayout-1 on which my changes to openrc are based.

Since we only use the result of the device scan to load modules, there is
no point in doing the scan if the kernel doesn't support modules in the
first place.
