build-sys: check for POSIX utmpx usage
We simply check for utmpxname and updwtmpx functions to disable
all programs which are not POSIX utmpx compatible, even though
last(1) and utmpdump(1) does not use them, see below.
utmpx.h is used in:
login agetty write lslogins last runuser su utmpdump wall
Non-Posix utmpx usage:
utmpxname -> login agetty write lslogins
updwtmpx -> login agetty runuser su
_PATH_.TMP -> login agetty write lslogins last runuser su
utmpx.ut_addr_v6 -> login last utmpdump

login-utils: switch to utmpx.h
Now the build will fail on many non-Linux systems because
utmpx.h is available everywhere but we still use non-POSIX
features. We'll fix this next commit.
Previously (and as documented in the manpage) the default policy
was SCHED_RR. Now it's implicitly SCHED_OTHER (0) as the value
is not initialized explicitly anymore.

sfdisk: support empty label use-case
By default sfdisk creates partition table when a first partition is
specified, otherwise the device is not modified. This force users to
create at least one partition.
This commit allows to create empty label without partitions if "label:
<name>" header line is specified by script.
The commit also modifies "New situation:" output to list label name
and label identifier.

The sigvec(3) (not sigvec(2)) page documents ancient BSD APIs.
The right page to cross reference here is sigaction(2),

chmem: new tool
Move the s390 specific chmem tool to util-linux.
The chmem tool was originally written in perl and is part of the
s390-tools package which can be found here:
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/linux390/s390-tools.html
Given that the tool is architecture independent, there is no reason to
keep it in an s390 specific repository. It seems to be useful for
other architectures as well.
This patch converts the tool to C and adds it to util-linux, while the
command line options stay compatible. The only exception is the option
"-v" which used to be the short form of "--version". That got changed
to "-V" so it behaves like most other tools contained within
util-linux.
The chmem tool can be used to set memory online or offline. This can
be achieved by specifying a memory range:

The lsmem tool inspect the contents of /sys/devices/system/memory and
prints a summary output similar to what lscpu does:

0x0000000060000000-0x000000007fffffff 512M online no 6-7

Memory block size : 256M
Total online memory : 5,8G
Total offline memory: 256M
In order to keep the output small the tool merges subsequent address
ranges where the attributes are identical. To avoid merging of line
the "-a" option can be used.
The lsmem tool also has "--extendend" and "--parsable" option which
can be used to customize the output, e.g. limit the output to
specified columns. This is quite similar to what the lscpu tool does.

mount: append inverting options for mount.<type> on "users"
If you call mount(8) as root, then we need to append inverting options
(if specified by fstab) for "user" and "users" to /sbin/mount.<type>
command line, because for UID=0 mount.nfs follows command line rather
than the fstab setting.
This has been originally implemented by commit a4c0cc75ff9744299f108c259efab1bd30c8007a for the old mount(8). The
same feature is supported by libmount, unfortunately for "user" only.
We need the same also for "users" to be backwardly compatible.
