The test might run on different platforms. If the platform happens
to have a RTC that does exist but unable to have RTC_UIE_ON set the
test will fail, while the chrony code is actually good.
Examples of bad clocks are:
- ppc64el: rtc-generic
- arm64: rtc-efi
To avoid that extend the log message check on 101-rtc to accept
that condition as a valid test result as well.

An analysis by Tim Ruffing [1] shows that a length extension attack
adding valid extension fields to NTPv4 packets is possible with some
specific key lengths and hash functions using little-endian length like
MD5 and RIPEMD160.
chronyd currently doesn't process or generate any extension fields, but
it could be a problem in future when a non-authentication extension
field is supported.
Drop support for all RIPEMD functions as they don't seem to be secure in
the context of the NTPv4 MAC. MD5 is kept only for compatibility.

In the local reference mode, instead of returning the adjusted current
time as the reference time, return the same timestamp updated only once
per about 62.5 seconds.
This will enable chronyd to detect polling of itself even when the local
reference mode is active.
Add a new set of tests for testing basic functionality, starting chronyd
with root privileges on the actual system instead of the simulator.
Tests numbered in the 100-199 range are considered destructive and
intended to be used only on machines dedicated for development or
testing. They are started by the run script only with the -d option.
They may adjust/step the system clock and other clocks, block the RTC,
enable HW timestamping, create SHM segments, etc.
Other tests should not interfere with the system and should work even
when another NTP server/client is running.
Instead of linking unit tests with *.o in the root directory, which may
include conflicting objects from a different configuration (e.g. hash),
add a print target to the main Makefile and use it in the unit test
Makefile to link only with objects that are relevant in the current
configuration.
