Standalone libsystemd

Hello!

I've come to really love using the sd-bus and sd-event APIs for lightweight D-Bus access and event loops, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. The amount of bindings to other languages for stuff like sd-bus. However, this unfortunately doesn't work in a Flatpak environment, and building the entirety of systemd for some libsystemd stuff just...isn't that great.

My idea was to add a Meson config option that would just build the systemd libraries, e.g. -Donly-public-libraries.

That being said, I know that not all the libraries would be buildable this way. At minimum, udev requires the library version to match the host: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2014-October/024539.html

So I guess this comes down to:

- Would libsystemd work standalone? What features *wouldn't* work? (I'm guessing the device and journal APIs.)
- Would a flag like this be considered for addition to the build scripts?
