This is useful for development where overwriting files out side
the configured prefix will affect the host as well as stateless
systems such as NixOS that don't let packages install to /etc but handle
configuration on their own.

tested with:
$ mkdir inst build && cd build
$ meson \
-Dcreate-log-dirs=false \
-Dsysvrcnd-path=$(realpath ../inst)/etc/rc.d \
-Dsysvinit-path=$(realpath ../inst)/etc/init.d \
-Drootprefix=$(realpath ../inst) \
-Dinstall-sysconfdir=false \
--prefix=$(realpath ../inst) ..
$ ninja install
":" is prettier, but meson 0.56+ doesn't like it:
src/systemd/meson.build:73: DEPRECATION: ":" is not allowed in test name "cc-sd-bus.h:c", it has been replaced with "_"
src/systemd/meson.build:73: DEPRECATION: ":" is not allowed in test name "cc-sd-bus.h:c-ansi", it has been replaced with "_"

Fixes#17568.
With the grandparent change to move most units to app.slice,
those units would be ordered After=app.slice which doesn't make any sense.
Actually they appear earlier, before the manager is even started, and
conceputally it doesn't seem useful to put them under any slice.
... when called with a valid environment variable name. This means that
any time we call it with a fixed string, it is guaranteed to return 0.
(Also when the variable is not present in the environment block.)
Coverity in CID#1435966 was complaining that s->enabled is not "restored" in
all cases. But the code was actually correct, since it should only be
"restored" in the error paths. But let's still make this prettier by not setting
the state before all operations that may fail are done.
We need to set .enabled for the prioq reshuffling operations, so move those down.
No functional change intended.
Previously it was very likely, when multiple contenders for the symlink
appear in parallel, that algorithm would select wrong symlink (i.e. one
with lower-priority).
Now the algorithm is much more defensive and when we detect change in
set of contenders for the symlink we reevaluate the selection. Same
happens when new symlink replaces already existing symlink that points
to different device node.
Note that st_mtime member of struct stat is defined as follows,
#define st_mtime st_mtim.tv_sec
Hence we omitted checking nanosecond part of the timestamp (struct
timespec) and possibly would miss modifications that happened within the
same second.
FixedRandomDelay=yes will use
`siphash24(sd_id128_get_machine() || MANAGER_IS_SYSTEM(m) || getuid() || u->id)`,
where || is concatenation, instead of a random number to choose a value between
0 and RandomizedDelaySec= as the timer delay.
This essentially sets up a fixed, but seemingly random, offset for each timer
iteration rather than having a random offset recalculated each time it fires.
Closes#10355
