Chris Down 3f1c1287a9 analyze: Add "timespan" command to dump time span in usec
This is useful for a couple of cases, I'm mostly interested in case #1:

1. Verifying "reasonable" values in a trivially scriptable way
2. Debugging unexpected time span parsing directly

Test Plan:

```
% build/systemd-analyze timespan 20
Original: 20
      μs: 20
   Human: 20us
% build/systemd-analyze timespan 20ms
Original: 20ms
      μs: 20000
   Human: 20ms
% build/systemd-analyze timespan 20z
Failed to parse time span '20z': Invalid argument
```

<title>Description</title>
<para><command>systemd-analyze</command> may be used to determine
system boot-up performance statistics and retrieve other state and
tracing information from the system and service manager, and to
verify the correctness of unit files. It is also used to access
special functions useful for advanced system manager debugging.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze time</command> prints the time
spent in the kernel before userspace has been reached, the time
spent in the initial RAM disk (initrd) before normal system
userspace has been reached, and the time normal system userspace
took to initialize. Note that these measurements simply measure
the time passed up to the point where all system services have
been spawned, but not necessarily until they fully finished
initialization or the disk is idle.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze blame</command> prints a list of
all running units, ordered by the time they took to initialize.
This information may be used to optimize boot-up times. Note that
the output might be misleading as the initialization of one
service might be slow simply because it waits for the
initialization of another service to complete.
Also note: <command>systemd-analyze blame</command> doesn't display
results for services with <varname>Type=simple</varname>,
because systemd considers such services to be started immediately,
hence no measurement of the initialization delays can be done.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze critical-chain
[<replaceable>UNIT…</replaceable>]</command> prints a tree of
the time-critical chain of units (for each of the specified
<replaceable>UNIT</replaceable>s or for the default target
otherwise). The time after the unit is active or started is
printed after the "@" character. The time the unit takes to start
is printed after the "+" character. Note that the output might be
misleading as the initialization of one service might depend on
socket activation and because of the parallel execution of
units.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze plot</command> prints an SVG
graphic detailing which system services have been started at what
time, highlighting the time they spent on initialization.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze dot</command> generates textual
dependency graph description in dot format for further processing
with the GraphViz
<citerefentry project='die-net'><refentrytitle>dot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
tool. Use a command line like <command>systemd-analyze dot | dot
-Tsvg > systemd.svg</command> to generate a graphical dependency
tree. Unless <option>--order</option> or
<option>--require</option> is passed, the generated graph will
show both ordering and requirement dependencies. Optional pattern
globbing style specifications (e.g. <filename>*.target</filename>)
may be given at the end. A unit dependency is included in the
graph if any of these patterns match either the origin or
destination node.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze dump</command> outputs a (usually
very long) human-readable serialization of the complete server
state. Its format is subject to change without notice and should
not be parsed by applications.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze cat-config</command> is similar
to <command>systemctl cat</command>, but operates on config files.
It will copy the contents of a config file and any drop-ins to standard
output, using the usual systemd set of directories and rules for
precedence. Each argument must be either an absolute path including
the prefix (such as <filename>/etc/systemd/logind.conf</filename> or
<filename>/usr/lib/systemd/logind.conf</filename>), or a name
relative to the prefix (such as <filename>systemd/logind.conf</filename>).
</para>
<example>
<title>Showing logind configuration</title>
<programlisting>$ systemd-analyze cat-config systemd/logind.conf
# /etc/systemd/logind.conf
...
[Login]
NAutoVTs=8
...
# /usr/lib/systemd/logind.conf.d/20-test.conf
... some override from another package
# /etc/systemd/logind.conf.d/50-override.conf
... some administrator override
</programlisting>
</example>
<para><command>systemd-analyze unit-paths</command> outputs a list of all
directories from which unit files, <filename>.d</filename> overrides, and
<filename>.wants</filename>, <filename>.requires</filename> symlinks may be
loaded. Combine with <option>--user</option> to retrieve the list for the user
manager instance, and <option>--global</option> for the global configuration of
user manager instances. Note that this verb prints the list that is compiled into
<command>systemd-analyze</command> itself, and does not comunicate with the
running manager. Use
<programlisting>systemctl [--user] [--global] show -p UnitPath --value</programlisting>
to retrieve the actual list that the manager uses, with any empty directories
omitted.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze log-level</command>
prints the current log level of the <command>systemd</command> daemon.
If an optional argument <replaceable>LEVEL</replaceable> is provided, then the command changes the current log
level of the <command>systemd</command> daemon to <replaceable>LEVEL</replaceable> (accepts the same values as
<option>--log-level=</option> described in
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>).</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze log-target</command>
prints the current log target of the <command>systemd</command> daemon.
If an optional argument <replaceable>TARGET</replaceable> is provided, then the command changes the current log
target of the <command>systemd</command> daemon to <replaceable>TARGET</replaceable> (accepts the same values as
<option>--log-target=</option>, described in
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>).</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze syscall-filter <optional><replaceable>SET</replaceable></optional></command>
will list system calls contained in the specified system call set <replaceable>SET</replaceable>,
or all known sets if no sets are specified. Argument <replaceable>SET</replaceable> must include
the <literal>@</literal> prefix.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze verify</command> will load unit files and print
warnings if any errors are detected. Files specified on the command line will be
loaded, but also any other units referenced by them. The full unit search path is
formed by combining the directories for all command line arguments, and the usual unit
load paths (variable <varname>$SYSTEMD_UNIT_PATH</varname> is supported, and may be
used to replace or augment the compiled in set of unit load paths; see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>).
All units files present in the directories containing the command line arguments will
be used in preference to the other paths.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze calendar</command> will parse and normalize repetitive calendar time events, and
will calculate when they will elapse next. This takes the same input as the <varname>OnCalendar=</varname> setting
in <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.timer</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>, following the
syntax described in
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.time</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze service-watchdogs</command>
prints the current state of service runtime watchdogs of the <command>systemd</command> daemon.
If an optional boolean argument is provided, then globally enables or disables the service
runtime watchdogs (<option>WatchdogSec=</option>) and emergency actions (e.g.
<option>OnFailure=</option> or <option>StartLimitAction=</option>); see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
The hardware watchdog is not affected by this setting.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze timespan</command> parses a time span and outputs the equivalent value in microseconds, and as a reformatted timespan.
The time span should adhere to the same syntax documented in <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.time</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
Values without associated magnitudes are parsed as seconds.</para>
<para>If no command is passed, <command>systemd-analyze
time</command> is implied.</para>
