We have no way how to print the kernel message buffer in really raw
way. The new option --noescape disables all \x<hex> translations.

These strings are expected to be wrote exactly as they are parsed, so make
translating them impossible. Since mkfs.cramfs -N option arguments need
this treatment use opportunity to slice usage() output to multiple lines.

* Start the ISO format flags at bit 0 instead of bit 1.
* Remove unnecessary _8601 from ISO format flag names to
avoid line wrapping and to ease readability.
* ISO timestamps have date-time-timzone in common, so move
the TIMEZONE flag to bit 2 causing all timestamp masks
to have the first three bits set and the last four bits
as timestamp 'options'.
* Change the 'SPACE' flag to a 'T' flag, because it makes
the code and comments more concise.
* Add common ISO timestamp masks.
* Implement the ISO timestamp masks in all applicable code
using the strxxx_iso() functions.

The kernel outputs multi-line messages (kernel messages that contain
the end-of-line character '\n'). These message are currently displayed by
dmesg as
[965199.028940] runnable tasks:
task PID tree-key switches prio
wait-time sum-exec sum-sleep
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The kernel timestamps each of these lines with [965199.028940] and the
dmesg utility should do the same.
Add the 'force-prefix'/'-p' dmesg option to add decode & timestamp
information to each line of a multi-line message.
Notes: The new print_record() algorithm stores the decode & timestamp
information in buffers. If the force-prefix option is used, the
message is split into separate lines and each line is prefixed with
the stored decode & timestamp information. The splitting of the
message into separate lines is done using strtok() which requires
write access to the message buffer (ie, the const message buffer is
now copied into a writeable buffer).
Successfully tested by me by looking at sysrq-t and sysrq-w output.
All known good /tests passed with these changes.
[kzak@redhat.com:
- use snprintf()
- cleanup \n usage (don't count line break to the
message text in the parsers and always print \n after the text
- add the option to the man page
- use --force-prefix for kmsg only, old syslog(2) API splits messages itself
- strdup() the message text only on force-prefix]

Consolidate --help and --version descriptions. We are
now able to align them to the other options.
We changed include/c.h. The rest of this patch was
generated by sed, plus manually setting the right
alignment numbers. We do not change anything but
white spaces in the --help output.

As buf is passed as a signed char buffer in fwrite_hex, fprintf will
print every byte from 0x80 as a signed-extended int causing each of
these bytes to be printed as "\xffffff80" and such, which can be pretty
confusing. Force fprintf to use the argument as a char to make it print
only 2 digits, e.g. "\x80".

When extended console is enabled, the kernel doesn't internally
concatenate message fragments, this change adds log fragment
concatenation to dmesg: instead of being printed as separate messages,
fragments are combined onto one line and printed with the timestamp of
the first line.
This doesn't work in all cases - such as if another message is logged in
between two fragment lines, but in this case the behavior matches the
previous output format (printed on the separate lines).

The --show-delta is off by default, which means it can be only on when user
has requested to see these time stamps. The --notime option should not turn
the delta outputing off, because then option order matters and no-one wants
that. Example of the old output:
$ dmesg --notime --show-delta | sed -n 's/ version.*//p; q'
[< 0.000000>] Linux
$ dmesg --show-delta --notime | sed -n 's/ version.*//p; q'

The message "stat failed %s" seems to say that stat() failed to
do something, or failed to pass a test, but of course it means
that the statting of something failed. So say so. Also make
two very similar messages equal to this one.
