Caterpillar is turned into a state machine driven application, that is designed to be running in the background. A D-Bus interface allows to interact with the application and to trigger certain actions such as: * searching for an update * installing (and optionally rebooting) or skipping the installation of an update These blocking actions, as well as the state handling are run in separate tokio tasks (threads). Various state related facilities are exposed as properties. More information on the interface can be found in the XML describing it. Further integration for D-Bus and systemd is added/updated to fully integrate also with scenarios in which caterpillar is started over D- Bus. Signed-off-by: David Runge <[email protected]>
Add documentation on newly added D-Bus interface and the exposed interactive mode. Add various code snippets explaining how to navigate the installation of updates using the new interface. Signed-off-by: David Runge <[email protected]>

Add htop and tmux to list of installed packages in the created images. Signed-off-by: David Runge <[email protected]>
As caterpillar is now a long-running service, it never quits. This means that currently the tests for skipping on "no update found" can not be run, as they relied on the application exiting at some point. Signed-off-by: David Runge <[email protected]>
