openrc-init.c and openrc-shutdown.c are based on code which was written by
James Hammons <jlhamm@acm.org>, so I would like to publically
thank him for his work.
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.

These functions were never meant to be used outside of OpenRC, and they
were added when we thought we were going to do away with the automatic
detection of subsystems. Since the autodetection is not going away, we
can combine these functions into rc_sys.
This makes it possible to override settings in rc.conf by adding a
directory @SYSCONFDIR@/rc.conf.d and putting files in this directory.
The files will be processed in lexical order, and the last setting in
these files will be used.
This doesn't affect us on gentoo, but on archlinux, which has done the
/usr merge, OpenRC was looking for /run under PREFIX. /run is always at
the root level, so it shouldn't have prefix appended to it.

On prefix systems, RC_SVCDIR was being defined based on the host
operating system. This is not correct because there will not be a /run
directory in a prefix.
This commit moves RC_SVCDIR on prefix systems to the same location as on
non-Linux systems.
If you are not using linux, this should not affect you.
If you are using linux, from this point forward, openrc requires the
/run directory to be a mounted tmpfs. If it is, you can run
@LIBEXECDIR@/sh/migrate-to-run.sh as root to migrate your dependency
tree and state information to the new location. If it is not, you must
create the /run directory as root with permissions 755 then reboot your
system.

This looks up an option on the kernel command line. For now, itworks on
linux and returns NULL on the bsds, but we are definitely open to
patches for that side.

Read the entire @file into the buffer and set @len to the
size of the buffer when finished. For C strings, this will
be strlen(buffer) + 1.
Don't forget to free the buffer afterwards!

We also fix bug 374899 by adding this new function.

Refactor rc_conf_value into librc for use in library context.
Also requires moving:
- rc_conf internal static
- Defines: PROFILE_ENV, SYS_WHITELIST, USR_WHITELIST, RC_PATH_PREFIX
moved to rc.h with new RC_ prefix added.
- Defines: RC_CONF, RC_CONF_OLD moved to rc.h.

- Fixes bugs #347583, #349389, both of which were triggered by cgroups
being detected as the LXC subsystem type.
- Makes it much easier to select "prefix" type.
- "rc -S" will now print a warning if you have not configured rc_sys in
/etc/rc.conf
- All other semantics of rc_sys are unchanged in this patch.

OpenRC version is now stored as plaintext in /libexec/rc/version
Plugins (cursplash, splashutils) will have to be re-compiled to pickup
the new directories. State data needs to be moved from /lib/rc/init.d
to /libexec/rc/init.d as well.
Split halt.sh into halt, killprocs, romount and savecache services.
The reboot runlevel is removed but mapped to shutdown.
The halt script should be moved to the sysvinit package.
