This was requested by Debian, because the minicom software, which is
available on Debian and other distros, has a binary named runscript. We
are keeping a backward compatibility symlink for now, but this allows
Debian or any other distro to safely remove the symlink.

Debian requested this rename due to the "rc" binary conflicting with the
"rc" binary from the plan 9 shell.
We also add a deprecation warning to the binary when it is run as rc to
encourage users to switch to openrc instead.

We want to lookup the service based on the applet name.

Caused by bug 412589 I was looking at the do_mark_service() function and quickly
found that the segfault is caused by a strlen() call against a NULL pointer.
I also noticed it's using "/exclusive/%s.%s" so svcname.pid, all other functions
are just using the svcname.. So it seems that svcname.pid was/is never used and
thus not necessary at all.
In relation to the above, the if statement in the do_mark_service() function
("if (ok && svcname && strcmp(svcname, service) == 0) {") needs to be
fixed/improved as svcname and service are almost always equal, see my comment in
the function for further details.

This reworks the implementation of the --applet option so that it is
processed in run_applets() and does not require two calls to the
getopts_long() function. It is based on code by Robin Johnson and Chris
Richards.

the mtime of a file. It saves the shutdown time to this file also.
This is handy for systems without a working RTC chip.
Based on an idea by Michael A. Smith <michael@smith-li.com>.
Fixes Gentoo #272073.
