udev 165
========
Bugfixes.

The udev database has changed, After installation of a new udev
version, 'udevadm info --convert-db' should be called, to let the new
udev/libudev version read the already stored data.

udevadm now supports quoting of property values, and prefixing of
key names:
  $ udevadm info --export --export-prefix=MY_ --query=property -n sda
  MY_MAJOR='259'
  MY_MINOR='0'
  MY_DEVNAME='/dev/sda'
  MY_DEVTYPE='disk'
  ...

libudev now supports:
  udev_device_get_is_initialized()
  udev_enumerate_add_match_is_initialized()
to be able to skip devices the kernel has created , but udev has
not already handled.

libudev now supports:
  udev_device_get_usec_since_initialized()
to retrieve the "age" of a udev device record.

GUdev supports a more generic GUdevEnumerator class, udev TAG
handling, device initialization and timestamp now.

The counterpart of /sys/dev/{char,block}/$major:$minor,
/dev/{char,block}/$major:$minor symlinks are now unconditionally
created, even when no rule files exist.

New and updated keymaps.
