This adds support for optionally using a UNIX domain socket where a
D-Bus daemon may not be running.
To use this, launch the daemon and clients with something like
`FWUPD_DBUS_SOCKET=/var/run/fwupd.sock fwupdmgr get-devices`
We were calling g_module_symbol() 2703 times, which is actually more
expensive than you'd think.
It also means the plugins are actually what we tell people they are:
A set of vfuncs that get run. The reality before that they were dlsym'd
functions that get called at pretty random times.
Currently, HSI only has a numerical level, such as HSI 0~1 and each
number represents a security state from insecure to secure. If we
only show the number to the user, the user may confuse and try to
find the document to realize the meaning of the number or just ignore
them immediately. So, a readable name for each HSI level can catch
users' eyes and let them explicitly know the security status.

It's actually quite hard to build a front-end for fwupd at the moment
as you're never sure when the progress bar is going to zip back to 0%
and start all over again. Some plugins go 0..100% for write, others
go 0..100% for erase, then again for write, then *again* for verify.
By creating a helper object we can easily split up the progress of the
specific task, e.g. write_firmware().
We can encode at the plugin level "the erase takes 50% of the time, the
write takes 40% and the read takes 10%". This means we can have a
progressbar which goes up just once at a consistent speed.
More than one person has asked about 'why call fu_plugin_update() for a
reinstall or downgrade' and I didn't have a very good answer.
The plugin API is not officially stable, and we should fix things to be
less confusing. Use the same verbs as the FuDevice vfuncs instead.
Until gi-docgen is declared stable support either of them.
This effectively means that hand builds and CI builds will use
gi-docgen, but distro builds use gtk-doc-tools.
Add the IFD regions as child devices and set the region access on the child
devices. Also add read-only SPI descriptor as an HSI attribute and require
FLOCKDN on Intel hardware.
Use the hidden PCI 00:1f.5 device to set the SPIBAR automatically and generate
the quirk file automatically to support more hardware.
This allows us to 'nest' firmware formats, and removes a ton of duplication.
The aim here is to deprecate FuFirmwareImage -- it's almost always acting
as a 'child' FuFirmware instance, and even copies most of the vfuncs to allow
custom types. If I'm struggling to work out what should be a FuFirmware and
what should be a FuFirmwareImage then a plugin author has no hope.
For simple payloads we were adding bytes into an image and then the image into
a firmware. This gets really messy when most plugins are treating the FuFirmware
*as* the binary firmware file.
The GBytes saved in the FuFirmware would be considered the payload with the
aim of not using FuFirmwareImage in the single-image case.
