We only had to pile everything into the src/fuzzing/firmware directory
because honggfuzz could not cope with more than one input path.
This way each plugin is self contained and easy to copy.
Also, install the fuzzing builder objects as this fixes the installed
tests when srcdir does not exist.
Based on a patch by Jan Tojnar <jtojnar@gmail.com>, many thanks.
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.
Note that g_assert() should not be used in unit tests, since it is a
no-op when compiling with G_DISABLE_ASSERT. Use g_assert() in production
code, and g_assert_true() in unit tests.

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.
This allows the Redfish plugin to "just work" when there is no username
or password in the SMBIOS data. Using KCS we can create an admin account
from the host OS and then automatically enumerate devices.
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.
We don't want to show the big warning about the missing ESRT on server
hardware that is managed by a BMC:
WARNING: UEFI capsule updates not available or enabled in firmware setup
See https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/wiki/PluginFlag:capsules-unsupported for more information.
Only the backup BMC device (which we ignore anyway...) can be updated
by specifying the target ID, the others need an *empty* array so that
XCC can work out what devices need to be processed.
Some distributions like RHEL change the default to not autoconnect
ethernet devices. This breaks connecting to the SMBIOS-defined BMC
adapter which means all the reads fail after a 60s timemout.
Autoconnect the internal USB ethernet adapter so we can use Redfish
without user action.
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.
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.
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.

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

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.
Some vendors really really want 1.5.x in newer RHEL versions, but the version
of curl is too old. Add #ifdefs so that we can emulate (somewhat imperfectly)
the 'new' CURLU functonality.
The former drags on glib-networking and then gsettings-desktop-schemas, which
add over 5Mb to the minimal IoT and CoreOS composes. Everything already uses
libcurl (even NetworkManager!) and so this is an easy way to reduce image size.
