This drops the requirement on us being so strict on a particular ABI version,
and also more strongly discourages out of tree plugin development.
We should still strive to keep API stable, and as such keep a symbol map still.
Use rpath instead for the static plugins, and set the plugin install directory
to just fwupd-$ABI$ as we're storing more than just plugins here now.
Saving the quirks in the GResource section worked well, but it made the build
system very complicated and also meant the .data section was duplicated in
both `fwupd` and `fwupdtool` -- negating a lot of the hard-fought savings.
Simplify this feature so that we just `cat` all the quirk files together, then
gzip them into a single file. This means that at startup fwupd only needs to
check the mtime of one file, and weirdly it's actually faster to load a smaller
compressed file from disk that it is to load multiple uncompressed files.
tristate features will automatically disable if dependencies marked
as required are missing.
Packagers can manually override using `auto_features`.

This allows us to override the location we load data files from, which
allows us to do more kinds of installed tests in the future.
Also, move the global data/tests content into the place that it is used
as it was getting impossible to manage.
This prevents problems when cross compiling. Using help2man is now also of
limited use; if we can just tell the user to use --help we do not need to keep
the manual in sync.
It also allows us to drop the several other supporting files that we use when
the help2man output isn't actually that useful.

This has better multi-core performance and can run in persistent mode -- which
allows us to construct a test harness of all the parsers (which takes time) and
then just reuse the process for lots of different data.
To do this mount all ESP partitions and check all the binaries there to see if
they match any entries in the new dbx. If we applied the update when a hash
matched, we would unintentially 'brick' the users machine, as the grub and shim
binaries *have* to be updated first.
This functionality does reimplement the PE hashing functionality found in
sbsigntools and pesign. This was done for 4 main reasons:
* There were some memory safety issues found when fuzzing random binaries
* Executing the tools hundreds of times was a lot of overhead
* Operating from a blob of immutable mmap'd memory is much faster
* We only need a very small amount of functionality from both tools
