Lennart Poettering 64a7ef8bc0 man: be more explicit about thread safety of sd_journal
Triggered by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1609349

This adds two generic paragaphs we include via xinclude. One is the
"strict" version, which contains wording saying that we are thread
agnostic and what that means. And the other is the "safe" version, for
the cases we provide fully safety.

Let's then change most man pages to use either of these generic
paragraphs. With one exception: man/sd_journal_get_catalog.xml contains
both kinds of function, we hence use manual wording.

<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_journal_get_cutoff_realtime_usec()</function>
retrieves the realtime (wallclock) timestamps of the first and
last entries accessible in the journal. It takes three arguments:
the journal context object <parameter>j</parameter> and two
pointers <parameter>from</parameter> and <parameter>to</parameter>
pointing at 64-bit unsigned integers to store the timestamps in.
The timestamps are in microseconds since the epoch, i.e.
<constant>CLOCK_REALTIME</constant>. Either one of the two
timestamp arguments may be passed as <constant>NULL</constant> in
case the timestamp is not needed, but not both.</para>
<para><function>sd_journal_get_cutoff_monotonic_usec()</function>
retrieves the monotonic timestamps of the first and last entries
accessible in the journal. It takes three arguments: the journal
context object <parameter>j</parameter>, a 128-bit identifier for
the boot <parameter>boot_id</parameter>, and two pointers to
64-bit unsigned integers to store the timestamps,
<parameter>from</parameter> and <parameter>to</parameter>. The
timestamps are in microseconds since boot-up of the specific boot,
i.e. <constant>CLOCK_MONOTONIC</constant>. Since the monotonic
clock begins new with every reboot it only defines a well-defined
point in time when used together with an identifier identifying
the boot, see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_id128_get_boot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for more information. The function will return the timestamps for
the boot identified by the passed boot ID. Either one of the two
timestamp arguments may be passed as <constant>NULL</constant> in
case the timestamp is not needed, but not both.</para>

<title>Return Value</title>
<para><function>sd_journal_get_cutoff_realtime_usec()</function>
and <function>sd_journal_get_cutoff_monotonic_usec()</function>
return 1 on success, 0 if not suitable entries are in the journal
or a negative errno-style error code.</para>
<para>Locations pointed to by parameters
<parameter>from</parameter> and <parameter>to</parameter> will be
set only if the return value is positive, and obviously, the
parameters are non-null.</para>
