Instead of running meson install and hoping for the best, let's build
distribution packages from the downstream packaging specs. This gets
us the following:
- Vastly simplified mkosi scripts since we don't need a separate initrd
image anymore but can just reuse the default mkosi initrd.
- Almost everything can move to the base image as its not the basis
anymore for the initrd and as such we don't need to care about the
size anymore.
- The systemd packages that get pulled in as dependencies of other
packages get properly uninstalled and replaced with our packages that
we built instead of just installing on top of an existing systemd
installation with no guarantee that everything from that previous
installation was removed.
- Much better testing coverage as what we're testing is much closer
to what will actually be deployed in distributions.
- Immediate feedback if something we change breaks distribution packaging
- We get integration with the distribution for free as we'll automatically
use the proper directories and such instead of having to hack this
into a mkosi build script.

Whenever a home directory is in a locked state, accessing the files of
the home directory is extremely likely to cause the thread to hang. This
will put the session in a strange state, where some threads are hanging
due to file access and others are not hanging because they are not
trying to access any of the user's files.
This can lead to a whole slew of consequences. For example, imagine a
likely situation where the Wayland compositor is not hanging, but the
user's open apps are. Eventually, the compositor will detect that none
of the apps are responding to its pings, assume that they're frozen
(which they are), and kill them. The systemd user instance can end up in
a similarly confused state and start killing user services. In the worst
case, killing an app at an unexpected moment can lead to data loss.
The solution is to suspend execution of the whole user session by
freezing the user's slice.
Previously, we'd only freeze user.slice in the case of s2h, because we
didn't want the user session to resume while systemd was transitioning
from suspend to hibernate.
This commit extends this freezing behavior to all sleep modes.
We also have an environment variable to disable the freezing behavior
outright. This is a necessary workaround for someone that has hooks
in /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/ which communicate with some
process running under user.slice, or if someone is using the proprietary
NVIDIA driver which breaks when user.slice is frozen (issue #27559)

This is a kinda a follow-up for ce266330fc: it
makes resolved authoritative on our local hostname, and never contacts
DNS anymore for it.
We effectively already were authoritative for it, except if the user
queried for other RR types than just A/AAAA. This closes the gap and
refuses routing other RR type queries to DNS.
Fixes: #23662
It turns out it's mostly PKCS11 that supports the URI format,
and other engines just take files. For example the tpm2-tss-openssl
engine just takes a sealed private key file path as the key input,
and the engine needs to be specified separately.
Add --private-key-source=file|engine:foo|provider:bar to
manually specify how to use the private key parameter.

These will be used by display managers to pre-select the user's
preferred desktop environment and display server type. On homed, the
display manager will also be able to set these fields to cache the
user's last selection.
Most of our kernel cmdline options use underscores as word separators in
kernel cmdline options, but there were some exceptions. Let's fix those,
and also use underscores.
Since our /proc/cmdline parsers don't distinguish between the two
characters anyway this should not break anything, but makes sure our own
codebase (and in particular docs and log messages) are internally
consistent.
This reverts commit 5e8ff010a1.
This broke all the URLs, we can't have that. (And actually, we probably don't
_want_ to make the change either. It's nicer to have all the pages in one
directory, so one doesn't have to figure out to which collection the page
belongs.)
