This adds a new boolean setting DynamicUser= to service files. If set, a new
user will be allocated dynamically when the unit is started, and released when
it is stopped. The user ID is allocated from the range 61184..65519. The user
will not be added to /etc/passwd (but an NSS module to be added later should
make it show up in getent passwd).
For now, care should be taken that the service writes no files to disk, since
this might result in files owned by UIDs that might get assigned dynamically to
a different service later on. Later patches will tighten sandboxing in order to
ensure that this cannot happen, except for a few selected directories.
A simple way to test this is:
systemd-run -p DynamicUser=1 /bin/sleep 99999
Previously, we'd simply close and reopen the socket file descriptors. This is
problematic however, as we won't transition through the SOCKET_CHOWN state
then, and thus the file ownership won't be correct for the sockets.
Rework the flushing logic, and actually read any queued data from the sockets
for flushing, and accept any queued messages and disconnect them.
The macro determines the right length of a AF_UNIX "struct sockaddr_un" to pass to
connect() or bind(). It automatically figures out if the socket refers to an
abstract namespace socket, or a socket in the file system, and properly handles
the full length of the path field.
This macro is not only safer, but also simpler to use, than the usual
offsetof() + strlen() logic.
core: Add flexible way to provide socket type
the socket type should be a diffrent argumet
in make_socket_fd . In this way we can set the socket
type like SOCK_STREAM SOCK_DGRAM in the address.

tree-wide: port more code to use send_one_fd() and receive_one_fd()
because here our fd is not connected and we need to specify
the address.
When constructing the journal filename to store logs from a remote host, remove the port of the tcp connection, as the port will change with every reboot/connection loss between sender/reveiver machines. Having the port in the filename will cause a new journal file to be created for every reboot or connection loss.
For the implementation, a new argument "bool include_port" is added to the getpeername_pretty() function. This is passed to the sockaddr_pretty() function. The value of the include_port argument is set to true in all calls of getpeername_pretty(), except for 2 calls in journal-remote.c, where it is set to false.
bind() fails if it is called before setting SO_REUSEPORT and another
process is already binded to the same addess.
A new reuse_port option has been introduced to socket_address_listen()
to set the option as part of socket initialization.
