16dad32e43 Reword sentences that contain psuedo-English "resp."
As you likely know, Arch Linux is in the process of moving to systemd.
So I was reading through the various systemd docs and quickly became
baffled by this new abbreviation "resp.", which I've never seen before
in my English-mother-tongue life.

Some quick Googling turned up a reference:
<http://www.transblawg.eu/index.php?/archives/870-Resp.-and-other-non-existent-English-wordsNicht-existente-englische-Woerter.html>

I guess it's a literal translation of the German "Beziehungsweise", but
English doesn't work the same way. The word "respectively" is used
exclusively to provide an ordering connection between two lists. E.g.
"the prefixes k, M, and G refer to kilo-, mega-, and giga-,
respectively." It is also never abbreviated to "resp." So the sentence
"Sets the default output resp. error output for all services and
sockets" makes no sense to a natural English speaker.

This patch removes all instances of "resp." in the man pages and
replaces them with sentences which are much more clear and, hopefully,
grammatically valid. In almost all instances, it was simply replacing
"resp." with "or," which the original author (Lennart?) could probably
just do in the future.

The only other instances of "resp." are in the src/ subtree, which I
don't feel privileged to correct.

Make sure the man page titles are similar in style and capitalization so
that our man page index looks pretty.

cb07866b1b man: move header file man pages from section 7 to 3
This way we can include documentation about minor macros/inline function
within the introducionary man page in a sane way.

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.

a6927d7ffc service: add watchdog timestamp
This patch adds WatchdogTimestamp[Monotonic] to the systemd service
D-Bus API. The timestamp is updated to the current time when the
service calls 'sd_nofity("WATCHDOG=1\n")'.
Using a timestamp instead of an 'alive' flag has two advantages:
1. No timeout is needed to define when a service is no longer alive.
   This simplifies both configuration (no timeout value) and
   implementation (no timeout event).
2. It is more robust. A 'dead' service might not be detected should
    systemd 'forget' to reset an 'alive' flag. It is much less likely
    to get a valid new timestamp if a service died.
