Convert sigul to using systemd units

Soon FESCo has decided to drop all packages that still use sysvinit scripts. 

I've attached a patch that moves sigul to use systemd units instead of sysvinit scripts. Consider applying, or if you prefer I can go ahead and apply and build.

Comment 1 Miloslav Trmač 2016-01-25 17:50:34 UTC
Thanks for the patch.

AFAICS those units couldn’t work:
* Starting services as the sigul user means they don't have enough privileges to open the log file, or create the pid file (nor to implement the unix-{user,group} directives from the config files).
* Type=simple along with -d means the service terminates as soon as the parent launches the daemon child.

I have now built sigul-0.102-2.fc24 with units that seem to work for me, though testing would be appreciated.

(systemctl stop takes 90 seconds to time out for each service, mostly due to #707382; but eventually systemd does terminate the daemons. The default timeout could very likely be tuned further, but this is good enough as a minimal conversion.)

Yeah, I meant to test, but ran out of time. ;) Sorry about that and thanks for fixing things up.
