util.startup: Check root after detecting platform and reading config (thanks SigmaTel71)
Ensures that startup.detect_platform() runs so know whether to use the
POSIX method of checking the current user or something else. Also after
reading the config so we know whether the root override setting is set.
-- Simple template language
--
-- The new() function takes a pattern and an escape function and returns
-- a render() function. Both are required.
--
-- The function render() takes a string template and a table of values.
-- Sequences like {name} in the template string are substituted
-- with values from the table, optionally depending on a modifier
-- symbol.
--
-- Variants are:
-- {name} is substituted for values["name"] and is escaped using the
-- second argument to new_render(). To disable the escaping, use {name!}.
-- {name.item} can be used to access table items.
-- To renter lists of items: {name# item number {idx} is {item} }
-- Or key-value pairs: {name% t[ {idx} ] = {item} }
-- To show a defaults for missing values {name? sub-template } can be used,
-- which renders a sub-template if values["name"] is false-ish.
-- {name& sub-template } does the opposite, the sub-template is rendered
-- if the selected value is anything but false or nil.
