If we have a template unit template@.service, it should be allowed to specify a dependency on a unit without an instance, bar@.service. When the unit is created, the instance will be propagated into the target, so template@inst.service will depend on bar@inst.service. This commit changes unit_dependency_name_compatible(), which makes the manager accept links like that, and unit_file_verify_alias(), so that the installation function will agree to create a symlink like that, and finally the tests are adjusted to pass.
