This is either a denial-of-service attempt, a pathological performance
problem or a dbus-daemon bug. Sysadmins should be told about any of
these.

We were not actually doing what was intended (flooding the bus with
10k or 100k messages for the other side) because the bus was limiting
the sender to 128 parallel method calls.

These source files are specific to the embedded tests and make no sense
otherwise.
Also remove a comment in the CMake build system about fixing the
build of the activation helper on Windows: the activation helper
is Unix-specific and always will be, since it relies on Unix setuid
to function.

DBus uses custom rules in its Makefiles to implement test-coverage
statistics.
This patch implements test-coverage statistics with the autoconf macro
AX_CODE_COVERAGE. The script automatically tests for tools (e.g., gcov,
lcov), sets build variables and creates Makefile rules.
Run 'configure' with '--enable-code-coverage' to enable support for
test-coverage statistics. Run 'make check-code-coverage' to run the
tests and generate the statistics.

In Debian bug <https://bugs.debian.org/829348>, lightdm appears to
have been starting dbus-launch with at least one of the three
standard fds 0, 1, 2 (stdin, stdout, stderr) closed. This resulted
in the dbus-daemon's epoll_create1() returning a fd less than 3.
Later, _dbus_become_daemon() replaces fds 0-2 with /dev/null. As a
result, a subsequent call to _dbus_loop_add_watch() for the reload
pipe resulted in calling epoll_ctl on the non-epoll fd pointing to
/dev/null, which fails with EINVAL, resulting in the dbus-daemon
exiting unsuccessfully.
Unix programs are not normally expected to behave correctly when
launched with the standard fds not already open; but at the same time,
X11 autolaunching means that dbus-launch (and hence the dbus-daemon)
can get started from an arbitrarily precarious situation.

(cherry picked from commit c8f73a2a3a)
This function opens stdin, stdout, stderr pointing to /dev/null
if they aren't already open. Optionally, it can also replace
whatever is available on those fds with /dev/null.
To allow for use in contexts where only async-signal-safe functions
should be used, such as between fork() and a following exec(),
this function does not use conventional libdbus error handling
(which would require malloc). Instead, it sets errno and returns
an explanatory string.

This is in preparation for optionally making _dbus_warn() use it.
dbus-daemon closes its stderr under some circumstances, including
when launched by dbus-launch, which makes failures in that
situation rather hard to debug.
_dbus_system_log() is the same on Unix and Windows, so move it
to dbus-sysdeps.c. _dbus_system_logv() remains platform-specific.
