This adds the new library call sd_journal_open_container() and a new
"-M" switch to journalctl. Particular care is taken that journalctl's
"-b" switch resolves to the current boot ID of the container, not the
host.
This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to various
issue spotted. I guess I can just skip over reporting ubiquitous
comma placement fixes…
Highligts in this particular commit:
- the "unsigned" type qualifier is completed to form a full type
"unsigned int"
- alphabetic -> lexicographic (that way we automatically define how
numbers get sorted)
A few asserts are replaced with 'return -EINVAL'. I think that
assert should not be used to check argument in public functions.
Fields in struct sd_journal are rearranged to make it less
swiss-cheesy.

This fix is more complicated than it should be due to the consecutive
XML elements separated by collapsible whitespace.
Merging the lines and separating the XML elements with an en space or a
non-breaking space is the only solution that results in one, and only
one, space being inserted between them when testing. An em space results
in two spaces being inserted.
This allows the caller to explicitly specify which journal files
should be opened. The same functionality could be achieved before
by creating a directory and playing around with symlinks. It
is useful to debug stuff and explore the journal, and has been
requested before.
Waiting is supported, the journal will notice modifications on
the files supplied when opening the journal, but will not add
any new files.
This is the just the library part.
SD_JOURNAL_CURRENT_USER flags is added to sd_j_open(), to open
files from current user.
SD_JOURNAL_SYSTEM_ONLY is renamed to SD_JOURNAL_SYSTEM,
and changed to mean to (also) open system files. This way various
flags can be combined, which gives them nicer semantics, especially
if other ones are added later.
Backwards compatibility is kept, because SD_JOURNAL_SYSTEM_ONLY
is equivalent to SD_JOURNAL_SYSTEM if used alone, and before there
we no other flags.

Fixed typos, serial comma, and removed "either" as there were more
than two options. Also did an extra rename of "system-shutdown"
to "systemd-shutdown" that was forgotten in commit
