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'.]

56ba3c78ae build-sys: create Makefile-man.am automatically
man rules were repeating the same information in too many places,
which was error prone. Those rules can be easily generated from .xml
files. For efficiency and because python is not a required dependency,
Makefile-man.am is only regenerated when requested with

  make update-man-list

If no metadata in man/*.xml changed, this file should not change. So
only when a new man page or a new alias is added, this file should
show up in 'git diff'. The change should then be committed.

If the support for building from git without python was dropped, we
could drop Makefile-man.am from version control. This would also
increase the partial build time (since more stuff would be rebuild
whenever sources in man/*.xml would be modified), so it would probably
wouldn't be worth it.

7cf55dd070 man: overwrite vs. override
'overwrite' conveys the idea of the old text being destroyed.
'override' does not. It is more similar to 'overrule'.

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.

fc1a2e06a2 conf: when looking for configurations look in /etc first, in /run second
After long consideration we came to the conclusion that user
configuration in /etc should always override the (generally computer
generated) configuration in /run. User configuration should always be
what matters over anything else. Hence rearrange the search orders
accordingly.

In general this should change very little as overriding like this is
seldomn done so far, and the order between /etc and /usr stays the same.
