7964042405 man: wording and grammar updates
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)

e9dd9f9547 man: improve grammar and word formatting in numerous man pages
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'.]

7871c8e932 hostnamed: make chassis type configurable via /etc/machine-info
For many usecases it is useful to store the chassis type somewhere, and
/etc/machine-info sounds like a good place. Ideally we could always
detect the chassis type from firmware, but frequently that's not
available and in many embedded devices probably entirely unrealistic.

This patch adds a configurable setting CHASSIS= to /etc/machine-info and
exposes this via hostnamectl/hostnamed. hostnamed will guess the chassis
type from DMI if nothing is set explicitly. I also added support for
detecting it from ACPI, which should be more useful as ACPI 5.0 actually
knows a "tablet" chassis type, which neither DMI nor previous ACPI
versions knew.

This also enables DMI-based and ACPI-based detection for non-x86 systems
as ACPI is apparently coming to ARM platforms soon.

I tried to minimize the vocabulary of chassis types understood and
added: desktop, laptop, server, tablet, handset. This is much less than
either APCI or DMI know. If we need more types later on we can easily
add them.

5430f7f2bc relicense to LGPLv2.1 (with exceptions)
We finally got the OK from all contributors with non-trivial commits to
relicense systemd from GPL2+ to LGPL2.1+.

Some udev bits continue to be GPL2+ for now, but we are looking into
relicensing them too, to allow free copy/paste of all code within
systemd.

The bits that used to be MIT continue to be MIT.

The big benefit of the relicensing is that closed source code may now
link against libsystemd-login.so and friends.
