/**
 * Reads the global serial number of the system properties _area_.
 *
 * Called to predict if a series of cached __system_property_find()
 * objects will have seen __system_property_serial() values change.
 * Also aids the converse, as changes in the global serial can
 * also be used to predict if a failed __system_property_find()
 * could in turn now find a new object; thus preventing the
 * cycles of effort to poll __system_property_find().
 *
 * Typically called at beginning of a cache cycle to signal if _any_ possible
 * changes have occurred since last. If there is, one may check each individual
 * __system_property_serial() to confirm dirty, or __system_property_find()
 * to check if the property now exists. If a call to __system_property_add()
 * or __system_property_update() has completed between two calls to
 * __system_property_area_serial() then the second call will return a larger
 * value than the first call. Beware of race conditions as changes to the
 * properties are not atomic, the main value of this call is to determine
 * whether the expensive __system_property_find() is worth retrying to see if
 * a property now exists.
 *
 * Returns the serial number on success, -1 on error.
