This lets _dbus_warn() and _dbus_warn_check_failed() fall through
to flushing stderr and calling _dbus_abort(), meaning that failed

The only remaining callers were this function's own tests.
As a side benefit, this commit removes a TODO pointing out that this

a length outside the bounds of the DBusString to be an ordinary

Bug: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101568
This function looks appealing, but it is a trap, particularly in
_dbus_return_val_if_fail() checks. It returns a boolean result, which
cannot distinguish between "failed because we ran out of memory" and
"failed because the string is actually invalid"; but
_dbus_validate_signature_with_reason() allocates memory. Use the
over-complicated version directly, so libdbus can continue to
bend over backwards to support the (possibly mythical) operating systems
that limit memory consumption and do not overcommit, such that malloc()
can genuinely return NULL.

If this is reinstated it will need some checks. In particular, it
was using _dbus_check_is_valid_signature() in an unsafe way:
_dbus_check_is_valid_signature() cannot be used in a
_dbus_return_val_if_fail() check because it does not distinguish
between error by the caller, and out-of-memory conditions.

By default ${runstatedir} is the same as ${localstatedir}/run, but many
Linux distributions configure it to be /run and mount a tmpfs in that
location. All other factors being equal, it is preferable to use /run
where available because it is guaranteed to be local, whereas traversing
/var might involve automounting a networked filesystem (even though
/var/run itself is very likely to be a tmpfs).
/run or /var/run is currently only used in a few places in dbus, but
I plan to make more use of it during the development of
<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100344>.
The pid file is not part of the API between dbus and other software
(other than distribution init scripts for dbus itself), so we do not
need to keep it strictly compatible; so it is OK to move it.
We do not yet use /run for the system bus socket, because that is
part of the API between D-Bus clients and servers, and has always been
"officially" /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket.
<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101628> tracks the
possibility of changing that.
Similarly, we do not replace /var/run/console with /run/console, because
that path is part of the API between dbus-daemon and the obsolete PAM
modules pam_console and pam_foreground that used /var/run/console.
<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101629> tracks the possible
future removal of that code path.
In the CMake build system, the equivalent of ${runstatedir} remains
hard-coded to the equivalent of ${localstatedir}/run for simplicity. For
the sort of system-wide installations that would consider redefining
${runstatedir} to /run, the Autotools build system is strongly
recommended: in particular this is what Linux distributions are expected
to use.

These are like unix:tmpdir=/something, except that the resulting
socket is always path-based, never abstract.
This is desirable for two reasons:
* If a Linux container manager wants to expose a path-based socket
into the container, it can do so by bind-mounting it in the
container's filesystem namespace. That cannot work for abstract
sockets because they are not files.
* Conversely, if a Linux container manager does not want to expose
a path-based socket in the container, it can avoid bind-mounting it,
or bind-mount some harmless object like /dev/null over it.
That cannot work for abstract sockets because access to abstract
sockets is part of the network namespace, which is all-or-nothing.

of that permission to relicense the core library or the dbus-daemon

Currently when asked the SELinux context of the owner of
org.freedesktop.DBus, the dbus-daemon is returning an error.
In the same situation when asked about the Unix user or the PID, the
daemon would return its own user or pid. Do the same for the SELinux
context by returning the daemon one.
In particular this avoids an issue seen with systemd --user, where
dbus-daemon responds to UpdateActivationEnvironment() by passing on the
new environment to systemd with o.fd.systemd1.Manager.SetEnvironment(),
but systemd cannot get the caller's SELinux context and so rejects the
SetEnvironment() call.

This function already raised an error, and all callers handled that
error as gracefully as they could (because _dbus_generate_uuid() is
failable, since 2015). Given that, it seems unnecessarily hostile
to do a _dbus_warn_check_failed() unless we have no better alternative:
yes, it indicates that dbus has not been installed correctly, but
during build-time tests it's entirely reasonable that dbus has not
yet been installed.
Callers are:
* DBusConnection, to implement Peer.GetMachineId()
* The bus driver, to implement Peer.GetMachineId()
* X11 autolaunching
* dbus_get_local_machine_id()
Of those, only the last one is not in a position to return an error
gracefully, so move the _dbus_warn_check_failed() to there.
Migrate the text about the D-Bus library being incorrectly set up
into the error emitted by the Unix implementation, and to make it
less misleading, include separate error messages for both the
files we try to read:
$ bwrap --ro-bind / / --dev /dev --tmpfs /etc --tmpfs /var \
./tools/dbus-uuidgen --get
D-Bus library appears to be incorrectly set up: see the manual
page for dbus-uuidgen to correct this issue. (Failed to open
"/var/lib/dbus/machine-id": No such file or directory; Failed to open
