There was one attempt a year ago done by me to drop HAL [1] but it was
never resolved. There was another time when Dan suggested to drop HAL
driver [2] but it was decided to keep it around in case device
assignment will be implemented for FreeBSD and the fact that
virt-manager uses node device driver [3].
I checked git history and code and it doesn't look like bhyve supports
device assignment so from that POV it should not block removing HAL.
The argument about virt-manager is not strong as well because libvirt
installed from FreeBSD packages doesn't have HAL support so it will not
affect these users as well [4].
The only users affected by this change would be the ones compiling
libvirt from GIT on FreeBSD.
I looked into alternatives and there is libudev-devd package on FreeBSD
but unfortunately it doesn't work as it doesn't list any devices when
used with libvirt. It provides libudev APIs using devd.
I also looked into devd directly and it provides some APIs but there are
no APIs for device monitoring and events so that would have to be
somehow done by libvirt.
Main motivation for dropping HAL support is to replace libdbus with GLib
dbus implementation and it cannot be done with HAL driver present in
libvirt because HAL APIs heavily depends on symbols provided by libdbus.

We are currently adding -lutil and -lkvm to the linker using the
add_project_link_arguments method. On FreeBSD 11.4, this results in
build errors because the args appear too early in the command line.
We need to pass the libraries as dependencies so that they get placed
at the same point in the linker args as other dependencies.

A wireshark plugin must declare what major and minor version it
was built with as these are checked when wireshark loads plugins.
On the top of that, we use major + minor + micro to adapt to
changed API between releases. So far, we were getting these
version numbers from wireshark/config.h.
And while most distributions install wireshark/config.h file some
don't. On distros shipping it it's hack^Wsaved during built by
packaging system and installed later. But some distros are not
doing that. At least not for new enough wireshark because as of
wireshark's commit v2.9.0~1273 the ws_version.h is installed
which contains the version macros we need and is installed by
wireshark itself.
But of course, some distros which have new enough wireshark
packaged do not ship ws_version.h and stick to the hack. That is
why we can't simply bump the minimal version and switch to the
new header file. We need a configure check and adopt our code to
deal with both ways. At least for the time being.

If someone runs `meson setup --buildtype plain` meson ignores
warning_level=2 that is in our meson.build file. The implication is
that Meson will not automatically add -Wall which enables -Wformat.
This breaks building libvirt from git with the buildtype set to plain.
There is an issue reported [1] to not ignore warning_level silently
and the change to ignore it was done by upstream commit [2].
This change makes Meson print warnings about using warning_level which
as described above doesn't work for all build types.

Currently, we are mixing: #if HAVE_BLAH with #if WITH_BLAH.
Things got way better with Pavel's work on meson, but apparently,
mixing these two lead to confusing and easy to miss bugs (see
31fb929eca for instance). While we were forced to use HAVE_
prefix with autotools, we are free to chose our own prefix with
meson and since WITH_ prefix appears to be more popular let's use
it everywhere.

Right now we're unconditionally adding RPATH information to the
installed binaries and libraries, but that's not always desired.
autotools seem to be smart enough to only include that information
when targeting a non-standard prefix, so most distro packages
don't actually contain it; moreover, both Debian and Fedora have
wiki pages encouraging packagers to avoid setting RPATH:
https://wiki.debian.org/RpathIssuehttps://fedoraproject.org/wiki/RPath_Packaging_Draft
Implement RPATH logic that Does The Right Thing™ in the most
common cases, while still offering users the ability to override
the default behavior if they have specific needs.
