Filipe Brandenburger 681eb9cf2b man: generate configured paths in manpages
In particular, use /lib/systemd instead of /usr/lib/systemd in distributions
like Debian which still have not adopted a /usr merge setup.

Use XML entities from man/custom-entities.ent to replace configured paths while
doing XSLT processing of the original XML files. There was precedent of some
files (such as systemd.generator.xml) which were already using this approach.

This addresses most of the (manual) fixes from this patch:
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/patches/Fix-paths-in-man-pages.patch?h=experimental-220

The idea of using generic XML entities was presented here:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-May/032240.html

This patch solves almost all the issues, with the exception of:
- Path to /bin/mount and /bin/umount.
- Generic statements about preference of /lib over /etc.

These will be handled separately by follow up patches.

Tested:
- With default configure settings, ran "make install" to two separate
  directories and compared the output to confirm they matched exactly.
- Used a set of configure flags including $CONFFLAGS from Debian:
  http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/rules
  Installed the tree and confirmed the paths use /lib/systemd instead of
  /usr/lib/systemd and that no other unexpected differences exist.
- Confirmed that `make distcheck` still passes.

<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_journal_seek_head()</function> seeks to the
beginning of the journal, i.e. the oldest available entry.</para>
<para>Similarly, <function>sd_journal_seek_tail()</function> may
be used to seek to the end of the journal, i.e. the most recent
available entry.</para>
<para><function>sd_journal_seek_monotonic_usec()</function> seeks
to the entry with the specified monotonic timestamp, i.e.
<constant>CLOCK_MONOTONIC</constant>. Since monotonic time
restarts on every reboot a boot ID needs to be specified as
well.</para>
<para><function>sd_journal_seek_realtime_usec()</function> seeks
to the entry with the specified realtime (wallclock) timestamp,
i.e. <constant>CLOCK_REALTIME</constant>. Note that the realtime
clock is not necessarily monotonic. If a realtime timestamp is
ambiguous, it is not defined which position is sought to.</para>
<para><function>sd_journal_seek_cursor()</function> seeks to the
entry located at the specified cursor string. For details on
cursors, see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_get_cursor</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
If no entry matching the specified cursor is found the call will
seek to the next closest entry (in terms of time) instead. To
verify whether the newly selected entry actually matches the
cursor, use
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_test_cursor</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
<para>Note that these calls do not actually make any entry the new
current entry, this needs to be done in a separate step with a
subsequent
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
invocation (or a similar call). Only then, entry data may be
retrieved via
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_get_data</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
If no entry exists that matches exactly the specified seek
address, the next closest is sought to. If
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
is used, the closest following entry will be sought to, if
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_previous</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
is used the closest preceding entry is sought to.</para>
