This new session class is to "user" what "background" is to
"background-light": it doesn't cause the per-user service manager to
start.
This new session class is now the default if no session class was
provided at session registration time and the following conditions hold:
1. The session is not graphical
2. The user is not a regular user (but not root)
Or in other words root and system users won't get a service manager
started automatically if they go through a PAM session as part of things
like cron or ftp. They will however still get one if they log in
graphically.
This changes behaviour a bit, but hopefully in OK was.
This also makes "background-light" for system users incl. root.
This addresses one of the ideas discussed in #34988.
This document is renamed without any changes in a separate commit.
Otherwise, git does not show a diff, which makes it very hard
to review what is actually changed in the text.
Let's bump the kernel baseline a bit to 4.3 and thus require ambient
caps.
This allows us to remove support for a variety of special casing, most
importantly the ExecStart=!! hack.
Optional features allow distros to define sets of transfers that can
be enabled or disabled by the system administrator. This is useful for
situations where a distro may want to ship some resources version-locked
to the core OS, but many people have no need for the resource, such as:
development tools/compilers, drivers for specialized hardware, language
packs, etc
We also rename sysupdate.d/*.conf -> sysupdate.d/*.transfer, because
now there are more than one type of definition in sysupdate.d/. For
backwards compat, we still load *.conf files as long as no *.transfer
files are found and the *.conf files don't try to declare themselves
as part of any features

The concept is fairly well established and present in our docs in various
places.
Say that the exitrd is also marked by the presence of /etc/initrd-release.
