two member variables (expected signature and digest)

- Clean up the logging by consistently using `composefs:` as a prefix
- Add more assertions to more strictly verify our runtime state

Factor out a libotcore
This will contain logic shared between ostree-prepare-root

to avoid pulling in e.g. libcurl and other things.
In other words, `ostree-prepare-root` will not link to `libostree-1.so`,
but will pull in just what it needs from this library.
The checksum utils uses the crypto lib, but we're not explicitly linking
to it. I think this is why the CI got this error when using openssl
on debian, during ostree binary linking:
/usr/bin/ld: ./.libs/libotutil.a(libotutil_la-ot-checksum-utils.o): undefined reference to symbol 'EVP_DigestInit_ex@@OPENSSL_3.0.0'

This adds some defines for ed25519 key sizes and drops uses
of the libsodium defines for these, as well as replacing sodium_bin2hex
use with ot_bin2hex. Some code that wes optionally built before are now
always built.
The goal for this is to support both libsodium and openssl.
Also fixes return value of _load_pk_from_stream(). It used
to always return FALSE.

- We were missing setting the canonical commit args which assigns
e.g. owner uid 0, which is important for reproducibility

Separate prepare-root static path
We should have done this a long time ago. We don't have any test
coverage for the no-initramfs path, and I think it's not long
term supportable as we want to add more features like composefs.
Particularly now that there's good support for embedding an
initramfs in a kernel image, I see little value in a path for
having custom static linking for this prepare root flow.
That said, we will continue to make a best-effort "it compiles"
attempt to support it.
Fork the "pid 1" prepare root code into a new
`ostree-prepare-root-static.c` file, and drop the runtime conditionals.
We can drop the composefs logic from `-static.c` which ends up
keeping that file much smaller.
A further next step here will be to actually fold the
`prepare-root.c` logic into the main `ostree` binary which we
can then just include in the initramfs.

test-concurrency: Don't lower timeout
I think there's never been a real race condition here. Instead
the problem is:
- We have a timeout on the lock, after which we error out (30s)
- This test actually *lowers* the timeout
Looking through the failures for test-concurrency what I see
is
`error: Locking repo exclusive failed: Resource temporarily unavailable`
which is us hitting the timeout.
Hardcoded timeouts are just going to be subject to race conditions.
I understand not wanting to block forever in some cases, but any
arbitrary timeout is just going to get hit in real world conditions
too.
Anyways for now, stop shooting ourselves in the foot and at least
keep the timeout at the default.
Currently we generate a signature for the actual composefs image, and
then we apply that when we enable fsverity on the composefs
image. However, there are some issues with this.
First of all, such a signed fs-verity image file can only be read if
the corresponding puiblic keyring is loaded into the fs-verity
keyring. In a typical secure setup we will have a per-commit key that
is loaded from the initrd. Additionally, the keyring is often sealed
to avoid loading more keys later.
This means you can only ever mount (or even look at) composefs images
from the current boot. While this is not a huge issue it is something
of a pain for example when debugging things.
Secondly, and more problematic, during a deploy we can't enable
fs-verity on the newly created composefs file, because and at that
point you need to pass in the signature. Unfortunately this will fail
if the matching public key is not in the keyring, which will fail for
similar reasons as the first issue.
The current workaround is to *not* enable fs-verity during deploy, but
write the signature to a file. Then the first time the particular
commit is booted we apply the signature to the iamge. This works
around issue two, but not issue one. But it causes us to do a lot of
writes and computation during the first boot as we need to write the
fs-verity merkle tree to disk. It would be much better and robust if
the merkle tree could be written during the deployment of the update
(i.e. before boot).
The new apporach is to always deploy an unsigned, but fs-verity
enabled composefs image. Then we create separate files that contain
the expected digest, and a signature of that file. On the first boot
we sign the digest file, and on further boots we can just verify
that it is signed before using it.
This fixes issue 1, since all deploys are always readable, and it
makes the workaround for issue 2 much less problematic, as we only
need to change a much smaller file on the first boot.
Long term I would like to avoid the first-boot writing totally, and
I've been chatting with David Howells (kernel keyring maintainer) and
he proposed adding a new keyring syscall that verifies a PKCS#7
signature from userspace directly. This would be exactly what
fs-verity does, except we wouldn't have to write the digest to disk
during boot, we would just read the digest file and the signature file
each boot and ask the kernel to verify it.
