Alan Jenkins 950d8fcdd9 units: express Conflict in syslog.socket instead of emergency.service
Note this commit only changes how the code is expressed; it does not change
the existence of any dependency.

The `Conflicts=` was added in 3136ec90, "Stop syslog.socket when entering
emergency mode".  The discussion in the issue #266 raised concerns that
this might be needed for other units, but failed to point out why
syslog.socket is special.  The reason is that syslog.socket has
DefaultDepedencies=no, so it does not get Requires=sysinit.target like
other socket units do.  But syslog.service does require sysinit.target,
among other things.

We don't have many socket, path, or timer units with
DefaultDependencies=no, and I don't think any of the triggered services
have such additional hard dependencies as syslog.service does.

It is much less confusing if we keep this `Conflicts=` in the same file as
the `DefaultDependencies=no` which made it necessary.

# The default syslog implementation should make syslog.service a
# symlink to itself, so that this socket activates the right actual
# syslog service.
#
# Examples:
#
# /etc/systemd/system/syslog.service -> /lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service
# /etc/systemd/system/syslog.service -> /lib/systemd/system/syslog-ng.service
#
# Best way to achieve that is by adding this to your unit file
# (i.e. to rsyslog.service or syslog-ng.service):
#
# [Install]
# Alias=syslog.service
#
# See https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/syslog for details.
