Hi all

After carefully reviewing and adopting all comments Michael had about
the code in previous patchset, here is again a new version of it.

Only PATCH 1 was changed since v2:
- propper initialization of variables where required preventing possible
  undefined behaviour
- more reliable error checking: all functions now return a meaningfull
  integer one way or another to indicate if and what kind of error
  happend. No need anymore to set errno to 0 manually as it no longer
  depended on.
- No more checking against NULL making many comparisions easier for the
  eye
- fix some possible memory leaks
- fix a possible unallocation of not yet allocated memory
- in case of a system error, a descriptive error is shown instead of
  the number, using the %m directive.

Hoping to pass the required strict evaluation this time :-).

For reference, the content of the summary mail that was sent with v1 of
the patch:
This patchset fixes Bug#12935
(https://bugzilla.ipfire.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12935)

Summary:
Addons where the initscript does not match the addon-name and addons with
multiple initscripts are now listed on services.cgi since CU170.
But addonctrl still expected addon name to be equal to
initscript name; Hence starting/stopping/enabling/disabling of such
addons was not possible.
This has always been like that, but that problem was hidden as
services.cgi also did not display those addon services.

After discussing this with Adolf on the Bug report, we concluded that we
should adapt addonctrl to work with the new addon metadata
Services-field instead.

I basically rewrote addonctrl to not only use the new services metadata
but also to have better errorchecking and added the posibility to check
if a service is currently enabled or disabled.
As a result services.cgi no longer has to go checking the precense of
runlevel initscripts, but can just ask addonctrl.
I also added a warning to services.cgi if a runlevel initscript does not
exists, to prevent the user from wondering why he can't enable a
specific service. (Adolf pointed out some services don't install
runlevel initscripts by default)

More details in the bugreport and in the commit-messages of the patches.

Regards
Robin
