tmpfiles: fix up and complain paths referring to /var/run (instead of /run) automatically
tmpfiles.d relies on merging lines for the same file paths, as well as
detecting conflicts between lines for the same file paths. /var/run is a
prominent case that is an alias for /run, any many tmpfiles snippets
refer to paths in /var/run rather than /run currently, which breaks the
conflict detection and merging.
We can't really fix this comprehensively, as doing so would require us
to resolve symlinks early on, but that's precisely not what we want to
do, as tmpfiles is usually run very early on where the paths might not
be fully available yet (in particular as we might likely create them
ourselves).
Hence, let's at least detect and fix this case for the most prominent
case of this ambiguity, and also log explicitly about this, asking users
to fix the snippets in question so that the merging and conflict
detection works properly again.
tmpfiles: create /var/{lib,log,cache}/private during early boot
This directory is used by the DynamicUer= stuff when used in combination
with StateDirectory=/LogDirectory=/CacheDirectory=. Let's make sure the
dir exists early on with the right perms. This is not strictly necessary
as we'll also create the dir on demand if it is missing, but in the
interest of grabbing the name early on, and making things more explicit
let's also list this in a tmpfiles.d/ snippet.
Turn VALGRIND variable into a meson configuration switch
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'.
man: fix ProcessSizeMax= description, describe how to disable coredumps
What the man page said was different than what the code did.
save_external_coredump() will store the core temporarily for backtrace
generation, and will delete if afterwards if it is too large. So to disable
processing, it's necessary to both set
Storage=none/Storage=journal+JournalSizeMax=0/Storage=external+ExternalSizeMax=0
and ProcessSizeMax=0. This updates the man page to reflect the code.
The man pages are extended to describe that Storage=none + ProcessSizeMax=0 is
the simplest way to disable coredump processing. All the storage and processing
options make this quite complicated, so let's add a copy-and-pasteable example
of how to disable coredump. Doing it through coredump.conf has the advantage
that we still log, and the effect is immediate, unlike masking the sysconf
file.

timedatectl: do not wrap polkit policy message
If messages are wrapped, then only the last line is shown in the
dialog, at least polkit gui for Xfce. It may be a bug of polkit or
Xfce. But it is not necessary to wrap the message in the policy
file. So, let's fix them.

service: FileDescriptorStoreMax should also imply NotifyAccess
Commenting out "WatchdogTimeout=3min" in systemd-logind.service causes
NotifyAccess to go from "main" to "none", breaking support for logind
restart. Let's fix that.
Since StandardOutput=file:path is more similar to StandardInput= than
StandardInputText=, and only StandardInput= is actually documented above
StandardOutput= whereas StandardInputText= is documented below it, I
assume the intention was to refer to the former.
While looking at our exit() invocations I noticed that the mtd_probe
stuff uses 'exit(-1)' at various places, which is not really a good
idea, as exit codes of processes on Linux are supposed to be in the
range of 0…255.
This patch cleans that up a bit, and fixes a number of other things:
1. Let's always let main() exit, nothing intermediary. We generally
don't like code that invokes exit() on its own.
2. Close the file descriptors opened.
3. Some logging for errors is added, mostly on debug level.
Please review this with extra care. As I don't have the right hardware
to test this patch I only did superficial testing.

man: journal-gatewayd.service: links on {rem,upl}
While set of systemd-journal-{gatewayd,remote,upload}.service services presents single subsystem on journald logs network transmission, systemd-journal-gatewayd.service description should also contain links to other parts of this subsystem: systemd-journal-remote.service and systemd-journal-upload.service.
Github now has issue templates in the web interface, and allows
more than one to be specified. Let's split our single template
in two: bug report and RFE.
