On Linux, dbus-daemon and dbus-daemon-launch-helper are treated specially
because they need permission adjustment.
On Windows, all executables are stubs, created by libtool. The real
executables are in .libs. We need to use libtool to install them
properly. So let's make them bin_PROGRAMS on Windows.

* bus/session.conf.in: Remove the reply_timeout stanza, previously
intended to increase the reply timeout, this now reduces it.
Signed-off-by: Scott James Remnant <scott@ubuntu.com>
* bus/expirelist.c (do_expiration_with_current_time): Don't check for
expiry if expire_after is negative, will just disable the expiry timer
after the call.

* bus/expirelist.c (do_expiration_with_current_time): If the item added
time fields are both zero, always expire.

This simply verifies that we forward unix fds only on connection that
support it. We willr eturn an error if a client attempts to send a
message with unix fds to another client that cannot do it.
This adds two new directives to the auth protocol:
NEGOTIATE_UNIX_FD is sent by the client after the authentication was
sucessful, i.e. OK was received.
AGREE_UNIX_FD is then sent by the server if it can do unix fd passing as
well.
ERROR is returned when the server cannot or is unwilling to do unix fd
passing.
This should be compatible with existing D-Bus implementations which will
naturally return ERROR on NEGOTIATE_UNIX_FD.
All users of full duplex pipes enable FD_CLOEXEC later anyway so let's
just do it as part of _dbus_full_duplex_pipe. By side effect this allows
to make use of SOCK_CLOEXEC which fixes a race when forking/execing from
a different thread at the same time as we ar in this function.

FWIW, the following patch to D-Bus should help:
bfo21072 - Log SELinux denials better by checking errno for the cause
Note that this does not fully address the bug report since
EINVAL can still be returned in permissive mode. However the log
messages will now reflect the proper cause of the denial.

This patch makes various things that should be static static,
corrects some "return FALSE" where it should be NULL, etc.

The requested_reply field is necessary in send denials too because
it's used in the policy language. The connection loginfo lack in
"would deny" was just an oversight.
Extend the current security logs with even more relevant
information than just the message content. This requires
some utility code to look up and cache (as a string)
the data such as the uid/pid/command when a connection is
authenticated.

Our previous fix went too far towards lockdown; many things rely
on signals to work, and there's no really good reason to restrict
which signals can be emitted on the bus because we can't tie
them to a particular sender.
