The new firmware for receivers with the nordic chips is using the 0x04
record type. This was previously not handled when parsing the file,
causing wrong behavior when trying to update the device. This patch
tries to properly deal with the record types, being them 0x04 or other.

This brings consistency to all fwupd output and allows stuff like
this:

└─XPS 13 9380 System Update:
Version: 0.1.7.0
Remote ID: lvfs
Summary: Firmware for the Dell XPS 13 9380
License: proprietary
Size: 0x1563d67
Vendor: Dell Inc.
Flags: is-upgrade
Description: This stable release fixes the following issues:
Fixed the issue where the Dell Power Manager displays an error when a 130W Type-C adapter is connected to the system.
new functionality has also been added:
Added a new feature to automatically suspend BitLocker before upgrading the firmware. After the firmware upgrade is complete, BitLocker is automatically enabled.
```
Mostly for consistency purpose. Details:
* It's confusing that internally the functions for `FwupdClient` use
`upgrade` in the name.
* The logical antonym of `downgrade` is `upgrade` not `update`
* People who don't use the tool frequently may try `get-upgrades`
This allows the daemon to set the base directory to store remotes.
This fixes issues with systemd where the installation prefix was set
to soemthing not writable such as `/usr/local` but systemd
`STATE_DIRECTORY` doesn't match up.

It should also hopefully help with immutable systems.
There are commits to the Thunderbolt kernel driver that make sure
that the upgrade process goes smoothly. If these commits aren't
present then it will look like a fwupd problem, when it's actually
a kernel problem.
When this issue was reported it appeared that commit
e4be8c9b6a
was missing from the locally tested kernel, but it's impossible
to determine that from userspace.
Prevent running the thunderbolt plugin on older kernels than that
set in `$sysconfdir/fwupd/thunderbolt.conf`.
By default that is set to 4.13.0, but if a distribution vendor has
backported all the necessary support it can be decreased to a lower
version for distro packages.
This removes the 'two-layer' FuDevice and FuSyanpticsmstDevice model, where
a complicated plugin cache was used to add and remove devices to the daemon.
By making FuSynapticsmstDevice derive from FuDevice rather than GObject we can
also use a lot of the helper functionality like the other plugins, for instance
->prepare_firmware().
The `drm_dp_aux_dev` devices do not emit uevents on unplug/re-plug and so all
devices of `drm` class are watched and the actual DP AUX devices rescanned after
a small delay. When the AUX devices emit changes from the kernel this workaround
can be removed.
Also drop force power support for MST controllers in the Dell plugin. Overall
this has just led to more problems than it's helped.
* Monitor flickers when turned on
* Crashing graphics drivers from time to time
* Fragile logic that doesn't always represent the device state
* Show "No Device ID" if no matching devices
* Don't show flags if no flags available
Before:
```
Device ID:
Description: Updating the MST FW improves display performance.
Flags:
GUID: 0a52c8c7-26d5-59a0-ae44-6b00e276d775
```
After:
```
Device ID: No Device ID
Description: Updating the MST FW improves display performance.
GUID: 0a52c8c7-26d5-59a0-ae44-6b00e276d775
```
The test is run if a physical TPM is available or if the environment
variable "TPM_SERVER_RUNNING" is set. In the latter case, the user is
expected to start a TPM simulator on their own, like we do in the Arch
Linux CI script here.
Using the library instead of the command line tools provides a more
stable interface. This implementation only fetches PCR 0 for all
available hash algorithms since this is the only PCR that is actually
used in fwupd.
This allows plugins to rescan hardware based on uevents of any device class
registered with fu_plugin_add_udev_subsystem().
Additionally, the events are rate limited to avoid causing lots of extra plugin
processing when replugging hardware.
tpm2_pcrlist has been renamed to tpm2_pcrread in
aedb0291d2
and the output format has changed slightly to include a leading "0x" in
9374bd70f4
Also add an example of the new output format to the self test.
Since https://fwupd.github.io is now a thing, people can be directed there
rather than relying upon locally built documentation by default.
Also this will mean one less dependency to install for people who build
from source.
Lastly this finally means that I can do this set of actions without failure:
```
meson build
ninja -C build
ninja -C build install (PK prompts for password)
rm -rf build
```
Previously gtkdoc stuff was built as root due to the PK prompt and removing
it would lead to stuff like this:
```
rm: cannot remove 'build/docs/libfwupd/html/libfwupd-FwupdClient.html': Permission denied
```
For now this is happening on every master build, but in the future
after it's working reliably it should be restricted to only tagged
builds.
To accomplish this, swap a build from circlei and travisci that
will save docs to publish.
Fixes Debian bug https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=921820
Introduce a new --log option to fwupdmgr that will log stdout to an argument.
If run under systemd, prefix that argument with $RUNTIME_DIRECTORY.
Add a new systemd unit and associated timer to regularly refresh metadata.
After the metadata refresh is complete, save the output to the motd location.
The timer and service are disabled by default and can be enabled by an admin.
Normally the flag 'supported' is used to indicate that devices can
update from a remote such as LVFS.
Running `#fwupdmgr get-updates` in this situation will show a message
for each device that is already up to date as well as messages for
devices that have updates available.
If no devices contain the supported flag, `# fwupdmgr get-updates`
will show no output, which is confusing to some people.
Show "No updatable devices" instead for those situations.
This controller isn't flashable in fwupd, but fwupd can display information
about it.
* Use a generic device ID (similar to safemode)
* Build device name attribute from DMI data
This allows us to set the subsystem and device file during construction, which
means we can create FuUdevDevice objects not backed by physical devices.
