I did not want it as a hard dependency.

I've changed needrestart to try to use the ImVirt perl package if
systemd-detect-virt is not available. This will be part of the
upcomming needrestart 3.6.

@Patrick Could you add a recommend for `systemd|libimvirt-perl` ?

Full ACK. But, sadly, needrestart's daemon/user session detection works
best on systemd due to the cgroup naming schema. Sadly I'm not aware of
any other init system doing something similar.
