Patch cups init script to source /etc/sysconfig/cups

Description of problem:
The cups init script (/etc/rc.d/init.d/cups) uses the daemon function (from
/etc/rc.d/init.d/functions) to start the cups process, but it does not source
a configuration file from /etc/sysconfig.

This makes is more difficult to cleanly set the nice level or cgroup for the
cups daemon by setting the NICELEVEL or CGROUP_DAEMON variables.  

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cups-1.4.2-43.el6.i686

How reproducible:
100%
