Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 5aded36978 man: add a mapping for external manpages
It is annoying when we have dead links on fd.o.

Add project='man-pages|die-net|archlinux' to <citerefentry>-ies.

In generated html, add external links to
http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man, http://linux.die.net/man/,
https://www.archlinux.org/.

By default, pages in sections 2 and 4 go to man7, since Michael
Kerrisk is the autorative source on kernel related stuff.

The rest of links goes to linux.die.net, because they have the
manpages.

Except for the pacman stuff, since it seems to be only available from
archlinux.org.

Poor gummiboot gets no link, because gummitboot(8) ain't to be found
on the net. According to common wisdom, that would mean that it does
not exist. But I have seen Kay using it, so I know it does, and
deserves to be found. Can somebody be nice and put it up somewhere?

<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_event_new()</function> allocates a new event
loop object. The event loop object is returned in the
<parameter>event</parameter> parameter. After use, drop
the returned reference with
<function>sd_event_unref()</function>. When the last reference is
dropped, the event loop is freed.</para>
<para><function>sd_event_default()</function> acquires a reference
to the default event loop object of the calling thread, possibly
allocating a new object if no default event loop object has been
allocated yet for the thread. After use, drop the returned
reference with <function>sd_event_unref()</function>. When the
last reference is dropped, the event loop is freed. If this
function is called while the object returned from a previous call
from the same thread is still referenced, the same object is
returned again, but the reference is increased by one. It is
recommended to use this call instead of
<function>sd_event_new()</function> in order to share event loop
objects between various components that are dispatched in the same
thread. All threads either have exactly zero or one default event loop
associated, but never more.</para>
<para><function>sd_event_ref()</function> increases the reference
counter of the specified event loop object by one.</para>
<para><function>sd_event_unref()</function> decreases the
reference counter of the specified event loop object by one. If
the counter hits zero, the event loop object is freed. Note that it
is freed regardless of whether it is the default event loop object for a
thread or not. This means that allocating an event loop with
<function>sd_event_default()</function>, then releasing it, and
then acquiring a new one with
<function>sd_event_default()</function> will result in two
distinct objects. Note that, in order to free an event loop object,
all remaining event sources of the event loop also need to be
freed as they each keep a reference to it.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Return Value</title>
<para>On success, <function>sd_event_new()</function> and
<function>sd_event_default()</function> return 0 or a positive
integer. On failure, they return a negative errno-style error
code. <function>sd_event_ref()</function> always returns a pointer
to the event loop object passed
in. <function>sd_event_unref()</function> always returns
NULL.</para>
