* Property has been converted to a GADT, and will be Property NoInfo
or Property HasInfo.
This was done to make sure that ensureProperty is only used on
properties that do not have Info.
Transition guide:
- Change all "Property" to "Property NoInfo" or "Property WithInfo"
(The compiler can tell you if you got it wrong!)
- To construct a RevertableProperty, it is useful to use the new
(<!>) operator
- Constructing a list of properties can be problimatic, since
Property NoInto and Property WithInfo are different types and cannot
appear in the same list. To deal with this, "props" has been added,
and can built up a list of properties of different types,
using the same (&) and (!) operators that are used to build
up a host's properties.
It might be better to do this check on boot to limit the time running the
DO kernel (which is not well security supported), but that has the
possibility of entering a bad reboot loop. Limiting this check to when
propellor runs avoids that, while still fixing the problem pretty fast.
