So far we didn't document control, transient, dbus config, or generator paths. But those paths are visible to users, and they need to understand why systemd loads units from those paths, and how the precedence hierarchy looks. The whole thing is a bit messy, since the list of paths is quite long. I made the tables a bit shorter by combining rows for the alternatives where $XDG_* is set and the fallback. In various places, tags are split like <element param="blah"> this. This is necessary to keep everyting in one logical XML line so that docbook renders the table properly. Replaces #8050.
