This patch equips init with the ability to report its internal state in
the form of a "state" report. This feature can be enabled by placing a
'<report>' node in init's configuration.
The report node accepts the following arguments (with their default
values):
'delay_ms="100"': specifies the number of milliseconds to wait before
producing a new report. This way, many consecutive state changes -
like they occur during the startup - do not result in an overly
large number of reports but are merged into one final report.
'buffer="4K"': the maximum size of the report in bytes. The attribute
accepts the use of K/M/G as units.
'init_ram="no"': if enabled, the report will contain a '<ram>' node
with the memory stats of init.
'ids="no"': supplement the children in the report with unique IDs, which
may be used to infer the lifetime of children accross configuration
updates in the future;
'requested="no"': if enabled, the report will contain information about
all session requests initiated by the children.
'provided="no"': if enabled, the report will contain information about
all sessions provided by all servers.
'session_args="no"': level of detail of the session information
generated via 'requested' or 'provided'.
'child_ram="no"': if enabled, the report will contain a '<ram>' node
for each child based on the information obtained from the child's RAM
session.
