Initially, we were creating tmpfiles entries in the sysinit runlevel and
again in the boot runlevel. Systemd runs the --create and --remove
options in one service called systemd-tmpfiles-setup after the local
file systems are mounted. Now we have a service called tmpfiles.setup
which emulates this.
This also closes the bug mentioned below, since we were originally
writing to files that were on read-only file systems and that were not
available.

Now that the tmpfiles.d code is more tested, actually call it from
init.d. It assumes that /run is already available when it runs.
Please note it runs TWICE.
- During sysinit, ideally just after /dev/shm is created, but before
udev has started. After udev is also acceptable, but not ideal.
- During boot, ideally just after localmount has completed.

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.
Split halt.sh into halt, killprocs, romount and savecache services.
The reboot runlevel is removed but mapped to shutdown.
The halt script should be moved to the sysvinit package.
