Teaches systemd-fstab-generator these two unit options,
creating appropriate dependencies on the generated .mount
units. When used, they override any other automatically
generated dependencies, such as local-fs.target, and are
NOT suppressed by noauto. The new options are ignored for
/, in the same way that noauto is ignored.

'stored on disk' gives the impression that this option affects only
permanent storage, even though it affects everything the journal
records, regardless of the storage type.
Use 'stored in the journal' to avoid confusion.
This section is loaded in a bunch of places, so this affects many
man pages.
1. point the reader to the synopsis section, which has the exact paths
that are used to load files.
2. put the "reference" part first, and recommendations later, in separate
paragraphs.
3. describe how individual settings and whole files are replaces.
Closes#12791.
(This also changes the suggested /etc/nsswitch.conf line to use for
hooking up nss-system to use glibc's [SUCCESS=merge] feature so that we
can properly merge group membership lists).
This also updates the suggested PAM snippet in a number of way:
1. Be closer to the logic nowadays implemented in Fedora where the
auth/account/password stacks are all finished off with
pam_{deny|permit}.so
2. Make pam_unix.so just "sufficient" instead of "required" (paving
ground for pam_systemd_home.so being hooked in as additional
sufficient module.
3. Only do pam_nologin in the "account" stack, since it's about account
validity really.
4. Use modern parameters to pam_unix when changing passwords, i.e.
sha512 and shadow, and use already set up passwords (preparing ground
for pam_systemd_home again)
There are sometimes users who put unit files in a location that is inaccessible
when systemd starts although they are not found and thus not started because
the corresponding mount units have not activated yet.
There is already a warning for such issue in man 8 systemctl:
link PATH...
...<snip>...
The file system where
the linked unit files are located must be accessible
when systemd is started (e.g. anything underneath /home
or /var is not allowed, unless those directories are
located on the root file system).
However, it looks that it's difficult to find the warning because introductory
users typically doesn't know systemctl link.
Although there is a description in UNIT FILE LOAD PATH pointing to systemctl
link, symlink is now not explicitly mentioned there and thus users doesn't
easily get aware of they should read it.
To deal with this, let's describe "symlink" and "systemctl link" more
explicitly in UNIT FILE LOAD PATH.
The document is rather huge, and a specific link is easier to consume. The form
is a bit strange because troff puts the symlink at the bottom, keyed by title,
so we need to use the same link target in all places.
