This allows creating the silo when starting the engine with custom
plugin keys such as WacomI2cFlashBaseAddr.
If we move the plugin initialization earlier then we don't get the
HwID matches, so we really do have to split this into a 4-stage startup,
e.g. ->load(), ->init(), ->startup() and ->coldplug().
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.
During my fwupd startup fu_plugin_has_custom_flag gets called 21 times
which causes all HWIDs to be enumerated with 346 calls to the quite
expensive fu_context_lookup_quirk_by_id() function.
Move the flag to a private hashset and enumerate the HWIDs only during
startup. There's nothing plugin specific about them anyway...
There are now multiple plugins using drm_dp_aux_dev interface which
may potentially be combined with an amdgpu. Prevent exercising this
interface with any plugin using DP aux unless a new enough kernel is
installed.
There is a lot of code in fwupd that just assigns a shared object type to
a FuPlugin, and then for each device on that plugin assigns that same shared
object to each FuDevice.
Rather than proxy several kinds of information stores over two different levels
of abstraction create a 'context' which contains the shared *system* state
between the daemon, the plugins and the daemon.
This will allow us to hold other per-machine state in the future, for instance
the system battery level or AC state.
Rather than trying to guess typos, force each plugin to register the quirk
keys it supports, so we can show a sensible warning if required at startup on
the console.
When this is done, include:
* Including the hash
* Including anything that is not ABI stable in plugins yet

I2C doesn't have any specification for what is a probe and what is a more
destructive action. Sending tx_buf out on the i2c bus to a generic address
might not be safe in all cases.
To prevent this, use a HWID to check the machine DMI value during device
creation before ->probe() or ->setup() is called on the device.
