As more and more packages grow support for systemd, most of them get a
systemd option.

For almost all of those[1], enabling this option has one ore more of
the following effects:
   - Install a systemd unit to /LIBDIR/systemd/system
   - Install a tmpfiles.d conf file to /LIBDIR/tmpfiles.d
   - Install a symlink to /etc/systemd/system

Those are simple text files and on my system they weight less than
1MiB in total.

Because of that I propose that we nuke the systemd option from those
exheres and install those unconditionally.

When I asked about this in #exherbo, a concern raised by zlin was that
this might inconvenience non systemd users because of more stuff
being installed to CONFIG_PROTECT, but as of today only symlinks get
installed to /etc and CONFIG_PROTECT doesn't apply to those.

[1] An exception that I am aware of is polkit, which can choose
between consolekit or systemd for user session tracking.
