Commit 4a77ca7 was an attempt at fixing the wording of --after and --before,
but the new wording was unclear.
Split the combined --after/--before section into a separate section for
each, explicitly state what each option does, and add information about
how these lists are generated.

It was backward - --after fetches After property, so units shown really
come *before* unit given as argument. Same for --before.

Actually 'STDOUT' is something that doesn't appear anywhere: in the
stdlib we have 'stdin', and there's only the constant STDOUT_FILENO,
so there's no reason to use capitals. When refering to code,
STDOUT/STDOUT/STDERR are replaced with stdin/stdout/stderr, and in
other places they are replaced with normal phrases like standard
output, etc.

Since cgroups are mostly now an implementation detail of systemd lets
deemphasize it a bit in the man pages. This renames systemd.cgroup(5) to
systemd.resource-control(5) and uses the term "resource control" rather
than "cgroup" where appropriate.
This leaves the word "cgroup" in at a couple of places though, like for
example systemd-cgtop and systemd-cgls where cgroup stuff is at the core
of what is happening.
This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to various
issue spotted. I guess I can just skip over reporting ubiquitous
comma placement fixes…
Highligts in this particular commit:
- the "unsigned" type qualifier is completed to form a full type
"unsigned int"
- alphabetic -> lexicographic (that way we automatically define how
numbers get sorted)
"systemctl load" has always been racy since the GC could hit any time,
before making use of the loaded unit. Very recent systemd will run GC
immeidately after all unit state changes which has the effect that the
the effect of "systemctl load" is completely gone now, so let's remove
the support for it in "systemctl" for good.
"systemctl set-log-level" is a command for analysis and tracing hence
"systemd-analyze" should be the better home for it, thus allowing us to
make the overly large "systemctl" a bit smaller.
It's an analysis command and its format is explicitly not covered by any
stability guarantees, hence move away from systemctl and into
systemd-analyze, minimizing the already large interface of systemctl a
bit.
This patch also adds auto-paging to the various systemd-analyze commands
where that makes sense
Use proper grammar, word usage, adjective hyphenation, commas,
capitalization, spelling, etc.
To improve readability, some run-on sentences or sentence fragments were
revised.
[zj: remove the space from 'file name', 'host name', and 'time zone'.]
This mirrors --property, and is generally useful.
New functionality is used in bash completion.
In case of zsh completion, new functionality is less useful
because of caching. Nevertheless, zsh completion for restart
is made to behave more-or-less the same as bash completion.
At least sockets can be restarted.
Occasionally people report problem with reboot/poweroff operations hanging in
the middle. One known cause is when a new transaction to start a unit is
enqueued while the shutdown is going on. The start of the unit conflicts with
the shutdown jobs, so they get cancelled. The failure case can be quite unpleasant,
becase getty and sshd may already be stopped.
Fix it by using irreversible jobs for shutdown (reboot/poweroff/...) actions.
This applies to commands like "reboot", "telinit 6", "systemctl reboot". Should
someone desire to use reversible jobs, they can say "systemctl start reboot.target".`
Add a new job mode: replace-irreversibly. Jobs enqueued using this mode
cannot be implicitly canceled by later enqueued conflicting jobs.
They can however still be canceled with an explicit "systemctl cancel"
call.
"systemctl default" should behave identically to "telinit N" (where N is the
corresponding runlevel target number), therefore it should use isolate job mode
too.
This makes 'status' behave like 'list-units':
systemctl status -> status of all units
systemctl -t error status -> status of error units
systemctl -t mount status -> etc.
Option listings seemed to be pretty much random, some were short opt,
long opt, others were long opt, short opt. This just makes every option
with a short and long opt that I could find in the order short opt, long
opt, for formatting's sake.
New sections are added: PAM options, crypttab options, commandline
options, miscellaneous. The last category will be used for all
untagged <varname> elements.
Commandline options sections is meant to be a developer tool: when
adding an option it is sometimes useful to be able to check if
similarly named options exist elsewhere.
