telemetrics-client installation starts when the package is installed,
this change makes sure that to start telemetry the first time two steps
are needed: 1- telemctl opt-in and 2- telemctl start

"telemd" was replaced by "telemprobd" a long time
ago, however several man pages still contain refererences
to "telemd".
This patch replaces all references accordingly.

We don't need to stay resident for a static two hours. Instead, exit
cleanly after five minutes idle. This also involves reducing the default
and maximum values of spool_process_time, as it was previously set to 30
minutes.
telempostd required several changes with timers, whereas telemprobd only
required changing the values of spool_process_time and
TM_DAEMON_EXIT_TIME, and refreshing the timeout when handling a client.

This change was on a TODO list for a few years.
The function tm_set_config_file could silently fail as it did not
return any status. This forced implementing of all error checks by
the callers of this function.
The current implementation does its own error checks and string copying.
The function returns an error code if errors were encountered.
Since this is a library function, all callers needed to be modified as well.
However, the modifications are code simplifications so this is not too painful.
In addition, the change also affected library documentation as well (void -> int).
As a direct consequence, this change allows simple implementation of the command
line argument "--config_file" uniformly across all probes.

The .rst were updated. All man pages need to be rebuilt/updated as well.
(Mostly removing/replacing "telemd" references)

This change adds a daemon that handles telemetry record retention,
record reporting, and record limiting policies. This new daemon
receives records in a folder that is monitored by inotify.

This adds several new manual pages to the project, ships them
using `dist` and has a simple target to recreate the new roff
files using the `ronn` utility: `make manpages`.
These man pages are still very crude and contain the absolute
minimum amount of information. I've attempted to cross link them
as much as is reasonable.
The telemetry API is documented in `telemetry(3)`. The important
functions themselves are `linked` with a ref link that should
make `man tm_create_record` (etc.) link to telemetry(3).
I attempted to make this pass `make distcheck` and `make install`
properly, but this should still be checked.
