This allows for proper locking between executions of fwupdtool in
Chromium OS minijail environment. It is needed after commit
9cf5f8f7ff was introduced.

Unloading the GModule means that any GTypes registered by that plugin cannot be
queried.
Other plugins could unintentionally call methods like G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME()
which makes the daemon explode. There's no need to actually close the module,
and so we're just making life diffult for ourselves for no good reason.

This can be used like this:
fwupdtool firmware-sign firmware.cab rhughes_signed.pem rhughes.key
Test signing certificates can be generated using the example script here:
https://github.com/hughsie/libjcat/blob/master/contrib/build-certs.py although
these certificates should not be used for enterprise use.
This function returns a list of sibling devices that have a chosen subsystem,
allowing callers to perform a limited walk of the device tree to locate related
devices.
This allows plugins to set the battery power state of the *machine* which means
we can automatically inhibit devices with FWUPD_DEVICE_FLAG_REQUIRE_AC set.
It also allows to set the BatteryThreshold to 25% for Lenovo hardware, and we
can override other vendors with further quirks as required.

The activation flag is stored into the history database, but not all
plugins will want to inherit it on coldplug the next time the daemon
is started.
For example the Dell Dock plugin will query this information from the
device and it will prevent getting into a bad state as a result.
Fixes: #3106
If only one plugin is enabled and there exists a device match for a GType that
has not been registered then the user sees a GType error about not being able
to create a device that wouldn't be created anyway.
By removing the error in the quirk parser we will catch actual errors in
fu_plugin_runner_backend_device_added() which actually does chcek for
FWUPD_PLUGIN_FLAG_DISABLED.

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.
We already have two things managing the UPDATABLE_HIDDEN->UPDATABLE transition,
and we're about to add a third.
Add a 'stackable' inhibit-style API so we do not accidentally mark a device as
updatable when it should remain hidden.
This makes a lot more sense; we can parse a firmware and export the same XML
we would use in a .builder.xml file. This allows us to two two things:
* Check we can round trip from XML -> binary -> XML
* Using a .builder.xml file we can check ->write() is endian safe
The idea here is to return the size of the firmware, including the header,
footer or other encapsulation. It would be expected that this value would
include the alignment if provided.
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.
Keeping *internal* API and ABI compatibility makes working with an already
complex codebase more mentally demanding than it needs to be.
Remember: plugins should be in-tree and upstream! If your out of tree plugin
stops working then it should be upstream.
The public-facing libfwupd will remain API and ABI stable for obvious reasons.
We want to make it as easy as possible for devices to refuse to update on low
battery, as this will likely be one of the WWCB requirements.
Ideally devices will check the battery level inside the firmware, but by also
providing the battery level to fwupd we can give the user a warning *before*
the update has started and without switching the device into bootloader mode.
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.
The best way of not getting something wrong is to not require it in the first
place...
All plugins now use DeviceInstanceId-style quirk matches and we can just drop
the prefix in all files. We were treating HwId=, Guid= and DeviceInstanceId= in
exactly the same way -- they're just converted to GUIDs when building the silo!
Devices may want to support more than one protocol, and for some devices
(e.g. Unifying peripherals stuck in bootloader mode) you might not even be able
to query for the correct protocol anyway.
NOTE that currently this is implemented for GATT characteristics only,
but can be extended to other types of objects.
Listening for property changes in a bluez characteristic requires a
long-lived connection or proxy, so this also refactors bluez device
UUIDs into a simple object that keeps the path, the proxy and the signal
id in case a callback is registered for this UUID.
An additional advantage of this is that fwupd no longer creates a
throwaway proxy object for every read and write UUID operation.
It is far too easy to forget to set FWUPD_DEVICE_FLAG_NO_GUID_MATCHING for new
plugins, and without it it all works really well *until* a user has two devices
of the same type installed at the same time and then one 'disappears' for hard
to explain reasons. Typically we only need it for replug anyway!
Explicitly opt-in to this rarely-required behaviour, with the default to just
use the physical and logical IDs. Also document the update behavior for each
plugin to explain why the flag is being used.
This allows you to have two identical Unifying plugged in without one of them
being hidden from the user, at the same time allowing a HIDRAW<->USB transition
when going to and from bootloader and runtime modes.
This removes the workaround added in 99eb3f06b6.

This is typically a Linux sysfs path or USB platform ID and is used in a
different way to the physical ID. The physical ID is only set for some devices
after setup() and depends on the subsystem list, and this would not be defined
for devices that do not match a plugin.
This also fixes an regression where the FuDeviceList fails to match the new
FuUdevDevice device in fu_device_list_get_by_guids_removed() and instead
silently gets 'fixed up' only if FWUPD_DEVICE_FLAG_NO_GUID_MATCHING is not set.
This also allows us to move the various backends device caches to FuBackend as
we now have a suitable ID that is for just the backend to use.
If the user explicitly specifies the device-id then we do not do the front-end
filtering. If the device detaches without being able to attach then the hardware
could be left in the bootloader state.

References to opt_variant and val_variant are sunk in a subsequent
variant creation and consumed by g_dbus_proxy_call_sync. They don't need
to be freed in this context.
This allows a device subclass to call the parent method after doing an initial
action, or even deliberately not call the *generic* parent method at all.
It also simplifies the plugins; you no longer have to remember what the plugin
is deriving from and accidentally clobber the wrong superclass method.
fu_udev_device_ioctl() interprets the return value of ioctl() as the
error cause and generates a misleading error message (permission
denied).
Fix it to use errno for error checking and reporting.
There are now two 'backends' of device plug/unplug events, and there is about
to become three. Rather than just adding two more vfuncs for every backend type
define common ones that all providers can use.
Also fix up the existing in-tree plugins to use the new vfunc names and filter
on the correct GType.
This allows us to check that the plugin is writing into a mutable buffer. Also
fix up the plugins that are currently 'wrong' and use the new function for the
plugins doing the right thing.
At the moment FuChunks are sometimes mutable, and sometimes immutable, and it's
all a bit too low level for comfort.
Before we can do any kind of optimisation or verification we need plugins to
stop reading directly from the C structure. The aim here is to make FuChunk
optionally mutable without making assumptions about the memory model, and also
to be able to introspect it for the docs.
If we're creating the child device using `Children=FuFooDevice|FOO&I2C_01` in
the quirk file then there's not actually anywhere to call FuDevice->setup()
on the child.
The logical place to do it is when we setup the parent, which is a NOP if
already called for the child. We also don't need to convert the child instance
IDs as it's already being handled during the child setup.

When this is done, include:
* Including the hash
* Including anything that is not ABI stable in plugins yet

This is really useful when working out HwId quirk values for remote systems.
fwupdtool export-hwids target.hwids
vim target.hwids
fwupdtool hwids target.hwids
We only convert the instance IDs to GUID after setup() has been called, which
means if we add even more instance IDs to the device in functions like
fu_plugin_device_registered() they never actually get converted to the GUID
form too.
It is impossible to choose a static default that is appropriate for both a tiny
ARM IoT device and a giant Xeon server.

The end year is legally and functionally redundant, and more importantly causes
cherry-pick conflicts when trying to maintain old branches. Use git for history.
That giant uint64_t isn't looking so big now, and we'll want to add even more
to it in the future. Split out some private flags that are never useful to the
client, although the #defines will have to remain until we break API again.
The Thunderbolt plugin wasn't actually working properly for
`DelayedActivation` because Thunderbolt devices weren't actually registered.
This only affected ChromeOS.
Asking the user for the UID mapping isn't working very well, as it requires lots
of manual handholding. It also doesn't work very well when the device vendor
does not actually have a PCI ID or if the vendor has split into two entities.
Just use the OUI address as an additional VendorID and match any of the device
IDs against any of the metadata-supplied values.
The fprint daemon only keeps the device open for 5 seconds and then releases it,
which seems like a small window to hit.
But! We're asking the user to authenticate with the same device we're about to
upgrade so a different part of the stack woke up the hardware just before we're
about to deploy an update onto it.
Just retry a few times to make sure the device is idle. Use a flag to prevent
accidentally causing regressions in other plugins.
