d00c263143 shutdown: unify shutdown.c's and async.c's sync() helper process
The helper processes are pretty much the same now, let's unify them
hence.

4c253ed1ca tree-wide: introduce new safe_fork() helper and port everything over
This adds a new safe_fork() wrapper around fork() and makes use of it
everywhere. The new wrapper does a couple of things we previously did
manually and separately in a safer, more correct and automatic way:

1. Optionally resets signal handlers/mask in the child

2. Sets a name on all processes we fork off right after forking off (and
   the patch assigns useful names for all processes we fork off now,
   following a systematic naming scheme: always enclosed in () – in order
   to indicate that these are not proper, exec()ed processes, but only
   forked off children, and if the process is long-running with only our
   own code, without execve()'ing something else, it gets am "sd-" prefix.)

3. Optionally closes all file descriptors in the child

4. Optionally sets a PR_SET_DEATHSIG to SIGTERM in the child, in a safe
   way so that the parent dying before this happens being handled
   safely.

5. Optionally reopens the logs

6. Optionally connects stdin/stdout/stderr to /dev/null

7. Debug logs about the forked off processes.

41bd3379ef sync: fork off sync() in a process instead of a thread
Let's fork off sync() ina process instead of a thread, as a safety
measure. This is beneficial to ensure that the original process can exit
without having to wait for the sync() to finish (note that the kernel
will delay process termination until all threads finished their
syscalls). In case of hanging NFS this increases the chance that PID 1
can safely transition to the "systemd-shutdown" process as the sync() is
initiated early on but definitely not waited for.

b26fa1a2fb tree-wide: remove Emacs lines from all files
This should be handled fine now by .dir-locals.el, so need to carry that
stuff in every file.

This is a cleaned up result of running iwyu but without forward
declarations on src/basic.

3ffd4af220 util-lib: split out fd-related operations into fd-util.[ch]
There are more than enough to deserve their own .c file, hence move them
over.

a095315b3c build-sys: split internal basic/ library from shared/
basic/      can be used by everything
            cannot use anything outside of basic/

libsystemd/ can use basic/
            cannot use shared/

shared/     can use libsystemd/
