Previously, network uplink (eth0) was configured in two places:
- udev (asynchronously)
- qubes-misc-post.service - at the very end of the boot process
This caused multiple issues:
1. Depending on udev event processing (non-deterministic), network
uplink could be enabled too early, for example before setting up
firewall.
2. Again depending on udev processing, it can be enabled quite late in
the boot process, after network.target is up and services assume
network already configured. This for example causes qubes-firewall to
fail DNS queries.
3. If udev happen try to enable enable networking even earlier, it may
happend before qubesdb-daemon is started, in which case network setup
fill fail. For this case, there was network re-setup in
qubes-misc-post service - much later in the boot.
Fix the above by placing network uplink setup in a dedicated
qubes-network-uplink@${INTERFACE}.service unit ordered after
network-pre.target and pulled in by udev based on vif device existence,
to handle also dynamic network attach/detach.
Then, create qubes-network-uplink.service unit waiting for appropriate
interface-specific unit (if one is expected!) and order it before
network.target.

Stop IP forwarding when stopping qubes-network service (which initially
enables it). This makes ordering against qubes-firewall safe - firewall
is applied before allowing IP forward and then is removed when IP
forward is already disabled.

fsck may require significant amount of RAM, enable swap earlier to avoid
out of memory condition. Implement this as a separate service unit, not
a swap unit, because the latter requires udev running (implicit
dependency on dev-xvdc1.device) which is not the case before remounting
root filesystem read-write.

* origin/pr/239:
xendriverdomain: remove placeholder for sbinpath
Fix regex in qubes-fix-nm-conf.sh
Update travis
xendriverdomain: remove Requires and After proc-xen.mount
Drop legacy xen entry in fstab
Add a pair of services:
1. qubes.RegisterBackupLocation - called by dom0, registers what backup
location (including both file and command options) can be accessed.
Registered location gets an ID returned to the caller. The location (and
its ID) is valid as long as the service call remains open.
2. qubes.RestoreById - called by restoring DispVM to retrieve the backup
content. The service expects location ID as an argument, and then list
of files/directories (separated with spaces) on the first line of stdin.
This is very similar to qubes.Restore service, with exception for the
archive location control.

The whole distutils module is a legacy thing in python3. Specifically,
most of it is not installed in Debian by default (there is only
distutils.version). Depending on python3-distutils is problematic, as
it's availability varies between Debian versions.
Instead of fighting with special cases in dependencies, replace the
whole thing with non-legacy shutil.which() (available since Python 3.3).
This specifically fixes qvm-console-dispvm tool, which uses
qubes.ShowInTerminal to show the actual console. This service uses
xterm, so it needs X session running already.

In Red Hat based distributions, there is no pam-configs like
mechanism (authselect seems too heavy and is not configured by
default), so instead, we replace the PAM file.
Enable su for users in the qubes group, same as in the Debian
package.
The "qubes-sysinit: set GUI_OPTS in gui-agent-linux" commit breaks
gui-agent-linux lacking its counterpart. Express this in the package
metadata.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#5662
Used by qubes.StartApp so that we can override distribution-provided
.desktop files. The mechanism is introduced to run gnome-terminal
with --wait option, so that it's compatible with DispVMs.
FixesQubesOS/qubes-issues#2581.
