If we process the import directive inline, then the ordering of the
commands for the "on xxx" sections would be a little unexpected. The
init.rc files do not really have an implied order as to which section
appears and gets processed first. The init code itself provides that
ordering explicitly. For the user, the expectation is that if both the
current file and the imported file define a section (e.g. "on init"),
then the commands in the current file will be executed first, and then
the ones from the imported file(s).
The current implementation did not do that. It processed the import
directive inline, and thus the imported (i.e. dependent) files would
appear first in the command lists for the sections. This created
unintended side effects and the solution would have been to try and
put the import lines somewhere in the middle of the init file. This
would be difficult to notice and hard to extract the dependencies.
To solve this, we add the imports to a list for each file being parsed
and process the list after finishing parsing the file. This provides
predictable order for imports and provides a logical flow from the
user perspective: the currently parsed file gets to run its commands
before the files being imported.
