If we log to the pty that is configured as stdin/stdout/stderr of the
container too early we risk filling it up in full before we start
processing the pty from the parent process, resulting in deadlocks.
Let's hence keep a copy of the original tty we were started on before
setting up stdin/stdout/stderr, so that we can log to it, and keep using
it as long as we can.
Since the kernel's pty internal buffer is pretty small this actually
triggered deadlocks when we debug logged at lot from nspawn's child
processes, see: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/9024#issuecomment-390403674
With this change we won't use the pty at all, only the actual payload we
start will, and hence we won't deadlock on it, ever.
The macro is inspired by the other string table macros, and takes the
same arguments in the same order and dumps a string table to stdout.
Since it's typesafe it's nice to implement this as macro rather than
regular function.
This new macro is useful for implementing commands such as "systemctl -t
help" and similar, i.e. wherever we want to dump all values of an enum
to stdout.
Functions whose only purpose is to be used with _cleanup_() should not
touch errno, so that failing removals do not alter errno at unexpected
places.
This is already done in unlink_and_freep(), rmdir_and_freep(),
rm_rf_physical_and_freep(), hence do so for unlink_tempfilep(), too.

This simplifies the use of tempfiles in tests and fixes "leaked"
temporary files in test-fileio, test-catalog, test-conf-parser.
Not the whole tree is converted.
And port config_parse_exec_oom_score_adjust() over to use it.
While we are at it, let's also fix config_parse_exec_oom_score_adjust()
to accept an empty string for turning off OOM score adjustments set
earlier.
POSIX doesn't declare too clearly how RLIM_INFINITY is set. Let's hence
filter it out explicitly early on, just as safety precaution should it
be defined weirdly on some arch, for example negative or below the
maximum value of the rlim_t type.
Configuration through environment variable is inconvenient with meson, because
they cannot be convieniently changed and/or are not preserved during
reconfiguration (https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1503).
This adds -Dvalgrind=true/false, which has the advantage that it can be set
at any time with meson configure -Dvalgrind=... and ninja will rebuild targets
as necessary. Additional minor advantages are better consistency with the
options for hashmap debugging, and typo avoidance with '#if' instead of '#ifdef'.
We were inconsitently using them in some cases, but in majority not.
Using assignment in assert_se is very common, not an exception like in
'if', so let's drop the extra parens everywhere.
When I see "test", I have to think three times what the return value
means. With "below" this is immediately clear. ratelimit_below(&limit)
sounds almost like English and is imho immediately obvious.
(I also considered ratelimit_ok, but this strongly implies that being under the
limit is somehow better. Most of the times this is true, but then we use the
ratelimit to detect triple-c-a-d, and "ok" doesn't fit so well there.)

We can jump to chase_one from two places. In the first 'todo' is set to
'buffer', which comes from path_make_absolute_cwd() and is nonnull In the
second 'todo' is set to 'joined' which is checked to be nonull a few lines
above the jump. So let's kill the code that deals with null todo there.

This means that when those targets are built, all the sources are built again,
instead of reusing the work done to create libbasic.a and other convenience static
libraries. It would be nice to not do this, but there seems to be no support in
our toolchain for joining multiple static libraries into one. When linking
a static library, any -l arguments are simply ignored by ar/gcc-ar, and .a
libraries given as positional arguments are copied verbatim into the archive
so they objects in them cannot be accessed.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2157629/linking-static-libraries-to-other-static-libraries
suggests either unzipping all the archives and putting them back togather,
or using a linker script. Unzipping and zipping back together seems ugly.
The other option is not very nice. The linker script language does not
allow "+" to appear in the filenames, and filenames that meson generates
use that, so files would have to be renamed before a linker script was used.
And we would have to generate the linker script on the fly. Either way, this
doesn't seem attractive. Since those static libraries are a niche use case,
it seems reasonable to just go with the easiest and safest solution and
recompile all the source files. Thanks to ccache, this is probably almost as
cheap as actually reusing the convenience .a libraries.
test-libsystemd-sym.c and test-libudev-sym.c compile fine with the generated
static libs, so it seems that they indeed provide all the symbols they should.
