This adds capabilities for start-stop-daemon by adding --capabilities
option. As a result, the user can specify the inheritable, ambient and
bounding set by define capabilities in the service script.
This fixes#314.
This commit adds a new --oom-score-adj option to start-stop-daemon and
supervise-daemon, as well as an equivalent SSD_OOM_SCORE_ADJ environment
variable. If either of these are specified (with the command-line
option taking precedence), then the specified adjustment value is
written to /proc/self/oom_score_adj after forking but prior to exec'ing
the daemon (at the time when nice and ionice are applied).
Additionally, per a suggestion by Mike Frysinger, the suggested values
for the SSD_NICELEVEL, SSD_IONICELEVEL, and SSD_OOM_SCORE_ADJ variables
in the example config file are now given as zeros, which are the
kernel's default values of these process knobs for the init process at
boot. Note that uncommenting any of these zero-valued suggestions will
cause SSD/SD to set the corresponding process knob affirmatively to
zero, whereas leaving the variable unset (and the equivalent command-
line option unspecified) means SSD/SD will not change the corresponding
process knob from its inherited value.

This fixes#435.
supervise-daemon was apparently overlooked when support for the
SSD_IONICELEVEL environment variable was added. This commit brings
supervise-daemon up to parity with start-stop-daemon with respect to
this environment variable.
The .Dt header is supposed to be all caps. This was mixing case.
The options block was being incorrectly indented due to a missing .El.
Some of the new options were missing the .It block, so add that.
Finally, the -D option was missing capitalization.
The pidfile of the supervisor doesn't need to be adjustable by the
service script. It is only used so the supervisor can stop itself when
the --stop option is used.
Health checks are a way to monitor a service and make sure it stays
healthy.
If a service is not healthy, it will be automatically restarted after
running the unhealthy() function to clean up.
The --retry option for supervise-daemon defines how the supervisor will
attempt to stop the child process it is monitoring. It is defined when
the supervisor is started since stopping the supervisor just sends a
signal to the active supervisor.
This fixes#160.
This creates --respawn-delay, --respawn-max and --respawn-period. It was
suggested that it would be easier to follow if the options were
separated.
This is for #126.
Allow limiting the number of times supervise-daemon will attempt to respawn a
daemon once it has died to prevent infinite respawning. Also, set a
reasonable default limit (10 times in a 5 second period).
This is for issue #126.
