An actor for broadcasting Linux Kernel uevents.

Intended as part of native a device manager for [Synit](https://synit.org). This is not a replacement for udev/eudev or mdev/mdevd.

  <require-service <daemon syndev>>

  <daemon syndev {
    argv: ["/bin/syndev"]

  }>

  ? <service-object <daemon syndev> ?cap> [
    $cap { machine: $machine }
  ]
]

```
