Replace logging with std::format

std::format is a much more modern logging solution, and gives us a lot
more flexibility, and better compile times when doing logging.

Unfortunately, given its level of compile time checks, it needs to be a
method, instead of the stream style logging we had before.  This
requires a pretty substantial change.  Fortunately, this change can be
largely automated, via the script included in this commit under
scripts/replace_logs.py.  This is to aid people in moving their
patchsets over to the new form in the short period where old patches
will be based on the old logging.  The intention is that this script
eventually goes away.

The old style logging (stream based) looked like.

BMCWEB_LOG_DEBUG << "Foo " << foo;

The new equivalent of the above would be:
BMCWEB_LOG_DEBUG("Foo {}", foo);

In the course of doing this, this also cleans up several ignored linter
errors, including macro usage, and array to pointer deconstruction.

Note, This patchset does remove the timestamp from the log message.  In
practice, this was duplicated between journald and bmcweb, and there's
no need for both to exist.

One design decision of note is the addition of logPtr.  Because the
compiler can't disambiguate between const char* and const MyThing*, it's
necessary to add an explicit cast to void*.  This is identical to how
fmt handled it.

Tested:  compiled with logging meson_option enabled, and launched bmcweb

Saw the usual logging, similar to what was present before:
```
[Error include/webassets.hpp:60] Unable to find or open /usr/share/www/ static file hosting disabled
[Debug include/persistent_data.hpp:133] Restored Session Timeout: 1800

OpenBMC webserver

This component attempts to be a "do everything" embedded webserver for OpenBMC.

Features

The webserver implements a few distinct interfaces:

  • DBus event websocket. Allows registering on changes to specific dbus paths, properties, and will send an event from the websocket if those filters match.
  • OpenBMC DBus REST api. Allows direct, low interference, high fidelity access to dbus and the objects it represents.
  • Serial: A serial websocket for interacting with the host serial console through websockets.
  • Redfish: A protocol compliant, DBus to Redfish translator.
  • KVM: A websocket based implementation of the RFB (VNC) frame buffer protocol intended to mate to webui-vue to provide a complete KVM implementation.

Protocols

bmcweb at a protocol level supports http and https. TLS is supported through OpenSSL.

AuthX

Authentication

Bmcweb supports multiple authentication protocols:

  • Basic authentication per RFC7617
  • Cookie based authentication for authenticating against webui-vue
  • Mutual TLS authentication based on OpenSSL
  • Session authentication through webui-vue
  • XToken based authentication conformant to Redfish DSP0266

Each of these types of authentication is able to be enabled or disabled both via runtime policy changes (through the relevant Redfish APIs) or via configure time options. All authentication mechanisms supporting username/password are routed to libpam, to allow for customization in authentication implementations.

Authorization

All authorization in bmcweb is determined at routing time, and per route, and conform to the Redfish PrivilegeRegistry.

*Note: Non-Redfish functions are mapped to the closest equivalent Redfish privilege level.

Configuration

bmcweb is configured per the meson build files. Available options are documented in meson_options.txt

Compile bmcweb with default options

meson setup builddir
ninja -C builddir

If any of the dependencies are not found on the host system during configuration, meson will automatically download them via its wrap dependencies mentioned in bmcweb/subprojects.

Use of persistent data

bmcweb relies on some on-system data for storage of persistent data that is internal to the process. Details on the exact data stored and when it is read/written can seen from the persistent_data namespace.

TLS certificate generation

When SSL support is enabled and a usable certificate is not found, bmcweb will generate a self-signed a certificate before launching the server. Please see the bmcweb source code for details on the parameters this certificate is built with.

Redfish Aggregation

bmcweb is capable of aggregating resources from satellite BMCs. Refer to AGGREGATION.md for more information on how to enable and use this feature.
