Usecase: later on we can use this to retroactively adjust log output in
journalctl or similar on systems lacking an RTC: we just have to search
for this sructured log message that indicates the first sync point and
can then retroactively adjust the incorrect timestamps collected before
that.
The approach to use '''…'''.split() instead of a list of strings was initially
used when converting from automake because it allowed identical blocks of lines
to be used for both, making the conversion easier.
But over the years we have been using normal lists more and more, especially
when there were just a few filenames listed. This converts the rest.
No functional change.
Currently, running "meson build" followed by "meson test -C build"
will result in many failed tests due to missing dependencies. This
commit adds the missing dependencies to make sure no tests fail.
Old meson fails with:
Element not a string: [<Holder: <ExternalProgram 'sh' -> ['/bin/sh']>>, '-c', 'test -n "$DESTDIR" || /bin/journalctl --update-catalog']
I'm doing it as a revert so that it's easy to undo the revert when we require
newer meson. The effect is not so bad, maybe a dozen or so lines about finding
'sh'.
Meson 0.58 has gotten quite bad with emitting a message every time
a quoted command is used:

Let's suffer one message only for each command. Hopefully we can silence
even this when https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/8642 is
resolved.
Let's add a catalog entry explaining further details.
Most importantly though: talk to PID 1 directly, via the private D-Bus
socket, so that this actually works correctly during early boot, where
D-Bus is not around.
Whenever we pick up a new line in /proc/self/mountinfo and want to
synthesize a new mount unit from it, let's say which one it is.
Moreover, downgrade the log message when we encounter a mount point with
an overly long name to LOG_WARNING, since it's generally fine to ignore
such mount points.
Also, attach a catalog entry to explain the situation further.
