Mgmtd makes use of libyang's internal ietf-yang-library module to add support for said module to FRR management. Previously, mgmtd was loading this module explicitly; however, that required that libyang's `ietf-yang-library.yang` module definition file be co-located with FRR's yang files so that it (and ietf-datastore.yang) would be found when searched for by libyang using FRRs search path. This isn't always the case depending on how the user compiles and installs libyang so mgmtd was failing to run in some cases. Instead of doing it the above way we simply tell libyang to load it's internal version of ietf-yang-library when we initialize the libyang context. This required adding a boolean to a couple of the init functions which is why so many files are touched (although all the changes are minimal). Signed-off-by: Christian Hopps <[email protected]>
