	* configure.in: Prebump to 0.5.0 - but we're not doing a release yet!
	Add libtool versioning since libhal and libhal-storage are going
	to break API and ABI backwards compatibility.

	* hald/hald_test.c: Add the beginnings of a test suite

	* hald/hald_test_libhal.c: -do-

	* hald/Makefile.am: Add build rules for test suite

	* tools/linux/hal_hotplug_map.c: Update to use new libhal API.

	* tools/lshal.c: Update to use new libhal API.

	* tools/hal_set_property.c: Update to use new libhal API.

	* tools/hal_get_property.c: Update to use new libhal API.

	* tools/fstab-sync.c: Update to use new libhal API.

	* libhal-storage/libhal-storage.c: Update to use new libhal API.
	This library will also go through a renaming/cleanup before 0.5.0.

	* libhal-storage/Makefile.am: Use library versioning

	* libhal/libhal.[ch]: Prefix all function names and other identifiers
	with libhal instead of hal. Add code for string lists. Change the
	way libhal is initialized to be a multistep process. Use HAL_PROPERTY_
	TYPE_* instead of DBUS_TYPE_*. Make all functions using IPC take
	a DBusError argument for better error handling. Notable changes

	string lists
