seccomp: add new system call filter, suitable as default whitelist for system services

Currently we employ mostly system call blacklisting for our system
services. Let's add a new system call filter group @system-service that
helps turning this around into a whitelist by default.

The new group is very similar to nspawn's default filter list, but in
some ways more restricted (as sethostname() and suchlike shouldn't be
available to most system services just like that) and in others more
relaxed (for example @keyring is blocked in nspawn since it's not
properly virtualized yet in the kernel, but is fine for regular system
services).

<entry>A reasonable set of system calls used by common system services, excluding any special purpose calls. This is the recommended starting point for whitelisting system calls for system services, as it contains what is typically needed by system services, but excludes overly specific interfaces. For example, the following APIs are excluded: <literal>@clock</literal>, <literal>@mount</literal>, <literal>@swap</literal>, <literal>@reboot</literal>.</entry>

<command>systemd-analyze syscall-filter</command> to list the actual list of system calls in each
filter.</para>
<para>Generally, whitelisting system calls (rather than blacklisting) is the safer mode of operation. It is
recommended to enforce system call whitelists for all long-running system services. Specifically, the
following lines are a relatively safe basic choice for the majority of system services:</para>
<programlisting>[Service]
SystemCallFilter=@system-service
SystemCallErrorNumber=EPERM</programlisting>
<para>It is recommended to combine the file system namespacing related options with
<varname>SystemCallFilter=~@mount</varname>, in order to prohibit the unit's processes to undo the
mappings. Specifically these are the options <varname>PrivateTmp=</varname>,
