dff93f8cab Add API for calling systemd-machined's DBus API
To register virtual machines and containers with systemd-machined,
and thus have cgroups auto-created, we need to talk over DBus.
This is somewhat tedious code, so introduce a dedicated function
to isolate the DBus call in one place.

711ca22a20 syntax-check: ignore all quoted strings in bracket-spacing
Ignore strings with an escaped double quote too.

This removes the need for special handling of quotes in the
semicolon check.

ba0880b25c syntax-check: Add the rule to forbid whitespace before ";"
Only a few cases are allowed:

1) The expression is empty for "for" loop, E.g.

  for (i = 0; ; i++)

2) An empty statement

  while (write(statuswrite, &status, 1) == -1 &&
         errno == EINTR)
      ; /* empty */

3) ";" is inside double-quote, I.e, as part of const string. E.g.

  vshPrint(ctl, "a ; b ; cd;\n");

The "for" loop in src/rpc/virnettlscontext.c is the special case,
1) applies for it, so change it together in this patch.

a3e95abeb5 Document bracket whitespace rules & add syntax-check rule
This documents the following whitespace rules

      if(foo)   // Bad
      if (foo)  // Good

      int foo (int wizz)  // Bad
      int foo(int wizz)   // Good

      bar = foo (wizz);  // Bad
      bar = foo(wizz);   // Good

      typedef int (*foo) (int wizz);  // Bad
      typedef int (*foo)(int wizz);   // Good

      int foo( int wizz );  // Bad
      int foo(int wizz);    // Good

There is a syntax-check rule extension to validate all these rules.
Checking for 'function (...args...)' is quite difficult since it
needs to ignore valid usage with keywords like 'if (...test...)'
and while/for/switch. It must also ignore source comments and
quoted strings.

It is not possible todo this with a simple regex in the normal
syntax-check style. So a short Perl script is created instead
to analyse the source. In practice this works well enough. The
only thing it can't cope with is multi-line quoted strings of
the form

 "start of string\
more lines\
more line\
the end"

but this can and should be written as

 "start of string"
 "more lines"
 "more line"
 "the end"

with this simple change, the bracket checking script does not
have any false positives across libvirt source, provided it
is only run against .c files. It is not practical to run it
against .h files, since those use whitespace extensively to
get alignment (though this is somewhat inconsistent and could
arguably be fixed).

The only limitation is that it cannot detect a violation where
the first arg starts with a '*', eg

   foo(*wizz);

since this generates too many false positives on function
typedefs which can't be supressed efficiently.
