* agent/gpg-agent.c (get_socket_path): New function for POSIX systems
to return the path for a provided unix-domain socket.
(map_supervised_sockets): New function to inspect $LISTEN_FDS and
$LISTEN_FDNAMES and map them to the specific functionality offered by
the agent.
(main): Add --supervised command. When used, listen on already-open
file descriptors instead of opening our own.
* doc/gpg-agent.texi: Document --supervised option.
--
"gpg-agent --supervised" is a way to invoke gpg-agent such that a
system supervisor like systemd can provide socket-activated startup,
log management, and scheduled shutdown.
When running in this mode, gpg-agent:
* Does not open its own listening socket; rather, it expects to be
given a listening socket on incoming file descriptors.
* Does not detach from the invoking process, staying in the
foreground instead. Unless otherwise specified, logs are sent to
stderr.
