This reverts commit 39dded7bb6.
This commit broke virpolkittest on Ubuntu 18 which has an old
dbus (v1.12.2). Any other distro with the recent one works
(v1.12.16) which hints its a bug in dbus somewhere. Revert the
commit to stop tickling it.

dbus_message_new() does not construct correct replies by itself, it is
recommended to use dbus_message_new_method_return() instead.

In preparation libtool "-module" flag removal, add lib prefix to all
mock shared objects.
While at it, introduce VIR_TEST_MOCK macros that makes path out of mock
name to be used with VIR_TEST_PRELOAD or VIR_TEST_MAIN_PRELOAD. That,
hopefully, improves readability, reduces line length and allows to
tailor VIR_TEST_MOCK for specific platform if it has shared library
suffix different from ".so".

When virDBusMessageRead() and virDBusMessageDecode were first added in
commit 834c9c94, they were identical except that virDBusMessageRead()
would unref the message after decoding it.
This difference was eliminated later in commit dc7f3ffc after it
became apparent that unref-ing the message so soon was never the right
thing to do. The two identical functions remained though, with the
tests and virDBus library itself calling the Decode variant, and all
other users calling the Read variant.
This patch eliminates the duplication, switching all users to
virDBusMessageDecode (and moving the nice API documentation comment
from the Read function up to the Decode function).

In many files there are header comments that contain an Author:
statement, supposedly reflecting who originally wrote the code.
In a large collaborative project like libvirt, any non-trivial
file will have been modified by a large number of different
contributors. IOW, the Author: comments are quickly out of date,
omitting people who have made significant contribitions.
In some places Author: lines have been added despite the person
merely being responsible for creating the file by moving existing
code out of another file. IOW, the Author: lines give an incorrect
record of authorship.
With this all in mind, the comments are useless as a means to identify
who to talk to about code in a particular file. Contributors will always
be better off using 'git log' and 'git blame' if they need to find the
author of a particular bit of code.
This commit thus deletes all Author: comments from the source and adds
a rule to prevent them reappearing.
The Copyright headers are similarly misleading and inaccurate, however,
we cannot delete these as they have legal meaning, despite being largely
inaccurate. In addition only the copyright holder is permitted to change
their respective copyright statement.

All of the ones being removed are pulled in by internal.h. The only
exception is sanlock which expects the application to include <stdint.h>
before sanlock's headers, because sanlock prototypes use fixed width
int, but they don't include stdint.h themselves, so we have to leave
that one in place.

This tests uses preload, which should work on any ELF-based platform
(and indeed it passes on Linux, GNU/kFreeBSD, and FreeBSD).
Also remove the WITH_DBUS conditional, as the test is already built
based on that conditional.
We have couple of functions that operate over NULL terminated
lits of strings. However, our naming sucks:
virStringJoin
virStringFreeList
virStringFreeListCount
virStringArrayHasString
virStringGetFirstWithPrefix
We can do better:
virStringListJoin
virStringListFree
virStringListFreeCount
virStringListHasString
virStringListGetFirstWithPrefix

When there isn't a ssh -X type session running and a user has not
been added to the libvirt group, attempts to run 'virsh -c qemu:///system'
commands from an otherwise unprivileged user will fail with rather
generic or opaque error message:
"error: authentication failed: no agent is available to authenticate"
This patch will adjust the error code and message to help reflect the
situation that the problem is the requested mechanism is UNAVAILABLE and
a slightly more descriptive error. The result on a failure then becomes:
"error: authentication unavailable: no polkit agent available to
authenticate action 'org.libvirt.unix.manage'"
A bit more history on this - at one time a failure generated the
following type message when running the 'pkcheck' as a subprocess:
"error: authentication failed: polkit\56retains_authorization_after_challenge=1
Authorization requires authentication but no agent is available."
but, a patch was generated to adjust the error message to help provide
more details about what failed. This was pushed as commit id '96a108c99'.
That patch prepended a "polkit: " to the output. It really didn't solve
the problem, but gave a hint.
After some time it was deemed using DBus API calls directly was a
better way to go (since pkcheck calls them anyway). So, commit id
'1b854c76' (more or less) copied the code from remoteDispatchAuthPolkit
and adjusted it. Then commit id 'c7542573' adjusted the remote.c
code to call the new API (virPolkitCheckAuth). Finally, commit id
'308c0c5a' altered the code to call DBus APIs directly. In doing
so, it reverted the failing error message to the generic message
that would have been received from DBus anyway.
Apparently we are not the only ones with dumb free functions
because dbus_message_unref() does not accept NULL either. But if
I were to vote, this one is even more evil. Instead of returning
an error just like we do it immediately dereference any pointer
passed and thus crash you app. Well done DBus!

Spawning the pkcheck program every time a permission check is
required is hugely expensive on CPU. The pkcheck program is just
a dumb wrapper for the DBus API, so rewrite the code to use the
DBus API directly. This also simplifies error handling a bit.
