Daniel P. Berrange 4789fb2e4e Add support for systemd init service
This patch adds support for a systemd init service for libvirtd
and libvirt-guests. The libvirtd.service is *not* written to use
socket activation, since we want libvirtd to start on boot so it
can do guest auto-start.

The libvirt-guests.service is pretty lame, just exec'ing the
original init script for now. Ideally we would factor out the
functionality, into some shared tool.

Instead of

  ./configure --with-init-script=redhat

You can now do

  ./configure --with-init-script=systemd

Or better still:

  ./configure --with-init-script=systemd+redhat

We can also now support install of the upstart init script

* configure.ac: Add systemd, and systemd+redhat options to
  --with-init-script option
* daemon/Makefile.am: Install systemd services
* daemon/libvirtd.sysconf: Add note about unused env variable
  with systemd
* daemon/libvirtd.service.in: libvirtd systemd service unit
* libvirt.spec.in: Add scripts to installing systemd services
  and migrating from legacy init scripts
* tools/Makefile.am: Install systemd services
* tools/libvirt-guests.init.sh: Rename to tools/libvirt-guests.init.in
* tools/libvirt-guests.service.in: systemd service unit

# NB we don't use socket activation. When libvirtd starts it will
# spawn any virtual machines registered for autostart. We want this
# to occur on every boot, regardless of whether any client connects
# to a socket. Thus socket activation doesn't have any benefit
