vasilito f31522130f fix: comprehensive boot warnings and exceptions — fixable silenced, unfixable diagnosed
Build system (5 gaps hardened):
- COOKBOOK_OFFLINE defaults to true (fork-mode)
- normalize_patch handles diff -ruN format
- New 'repo validate-patches' command (25/25 relibc patches)
- 14 patched Qt/Wayland/display recipes added to protected list
- relibc archive regenerated with current patch chain

Boot fixes (fixable):
- Full ISO EFI partition: 16 MiB → 1 MiB (matches mini, BIOS hardcoded 2 MiB offset)
- D-Bus system bus: absolute /usr/bin/dbus-daemon path (was skipped)
- redbear-sessiond: absolute /usr/bin/redbear-sessiond path (was skipped)
- daemon framework: silenced spurious INIT_NOTIFY warnings for oneshot_async services (P0-daemon-silence-init-notify.patch)
- udev-shim: demoted INIT_NOTIFY warning to INFO (expected for oneshot_async)
- relibc: comprehensive named semaphores (sem_open/close/unlink) replacing upstream todo!() stubs
- greeterd: Wayland socket timeout 15s → 30s (compositor DRM wait)
- greeter-ui: built and linked (header guard unification, sem_compat stubs removed)
- mc: un-ignored in both configs, fixed glib/libiconv/pcre2 transitive deps
- greeter config: removed stale keymapd dependency from display/greeter services
- prefix toolchain: relibc headers synced, _RELIBC_STDLIB_H guard unified

Unfixable (diagnosed, upstream):
- i2c-hidd: abort on no-I2C-hardware (QEMU) — process::exit → relibc abort
- kded6/greeter-ui: page fault 0x8 — Qt library null deref
- Thread panics fd != -1 — Rust std library on Redox
- DHCP timeout / eth0 MAC — QEMU user-mode networking
- hwrngd/thermald — no hardware RNG/thermal in VM
- live preload allocation — BIOS memory fragmentation, continues on demand

Event timestamps
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Most libinput events provide a timestamp in millisecond and/or microsecond
resolution. These timestamp usually increase monotonically, but libinput
does not guarantee that this always the case. In other words, it is possible
to receive an event with a timestamp earlier than the previous event.
For example, if a touchpad has :ref:`tapping` enabled, a button event may have a
lower timestamp than an event from a different device. Tapping requires the
use of timeouts to detect multi-finger taps and/or :ref:`tapndrag`.
Consider the following event sequences from a touchpad and a mouse:
::
Time Touchpad Mouse
---------------------------------
t1 finger down
t2 finger up
t3 movement
t4 tap timeout
For this event sequence, the first event to be sent to a caller is in
response to the mouse movement: an event of type
**LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_MOTION** with the timestamp t3.
Once the timeout expires at t4, libinput generates an event of
**LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_BUTTON** (press) with a timestamp t1 and an event
**LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_BUTTON** (release) with a timestamp t2.
Thus, the caller gets events with timestamps in the order t3, t1, t2,
despite t3 > t2 > t1.
libinput timestamps use **CLOCK_MONOTONIC**.
