Prep 229.9: Make all supportable API functions visible.
The process of cleaning up elogind, meaning to mask all bits that are unneeded by elogind, has been finished a while ago. It is therefore time to re-enable all previously masked API functions that elogind can support. This will make it easier for future developers to integrate elogind into their software where they already support systemd-login.

+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para>The functions
+ <function>sd_bus_message_append_string_memfd</function> and
+ <function>sd_bus_message_append_string_iovec</function> can be
+ used to append a single string (item of type <literal>s</literal>)
+ to message <parameter>m</parameter>.</para>
+
+ <para>In case of
+ <function>sd_bus_message_append_string_memfd</function>, the
+ contents of <parameter>memfd</parameter> are the string. They must
+ satisfy the same constraints as described for the
+ <literal>s</literal> type in
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_append_basic</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
+
+ <para>In case of
+ <function>sd_bus_message_append_string_iovec</function>, the
+ payload of <parameter>iov</parameter> is the string. It must
+ satisfy the same constraints as described for the
+ <literal>s</literal> type in
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_append_basic</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
+
+ <para>The <parameter>iov</parameter> argument must point to
+ <parameter>n</parameter> <structname>struct iovec</structname>
+ structures. Each structure may have the
+ <structname>iov_base</structname> field set, in which case the
+ memory pointed to will be copied into the message, or unset, in
+ which case a block of spaces (ASCII 32) of length
+ <structname>iov_len</structname> will be inserted. The
+ memory pointed at by <parameter>iov</parameter> may be changed
+ after this call.</para>
+
+ <para>The
+ <function>sd_bus_message_append_string_space</function> function appends
+ space for a string to message <parameter>m</parameter>. It behaves
+ similar to <function>sd_bus_message_append_basic</function> with
+ type <literal>s</literal>, but instead of copying a string into
+ the message, it returns a pointer to the destination area to
+ the caller in pointer <parameter>p</parameter>. Space for the string
+ of length <parameter>size</parameter> plus the terminating
+ <constant>NUL</constant> is allocated.</para>

+ <title>Return Value</title>
+
+ <para>On success, those calls return 0 or a positive integer. On
+ failure, they returns a negative errno-style error code.</para>
