I gave it a fresh read-through. I had a few comments, but nothing that I
think should hold up moving these patches to 'next'.

I do find the convert/sub-process split a little funny. Most of the
protocol bits from convert didn't get moved over, and you could use a
sub-process that spoke any arbitrary protocol. The odd man out is
subprocess_read_status(), which assumes not only pktlines, but also
a "status=foo" key/value pair inside them.

I have a feeling that funny split is because this is a preliminary
refactoring step that will have more features built on it, and the end
result may be more consistent. We _could_ hold these back and pass
judgement once we see more. But they're a reasonable-sized chunk that's
already been through 7 rounds of review. It makes sense to me to
graduate them at least to 'next' and let the next steps use them as a
stable base.
