This patch adds support for `Type=notify` to the systemd unit.

Supporting `Type=notify` improves both starting as well as reloading
of the unit, because systemd will be let known when the action completed.

See this quote from `systemd.service(5)`:
> Note however that reloading a daemon by sending a signal (as with the
> example line above) is usually not a good choice, because this is an

By making systemd aware of a reload in progress it is able to wait until
the reload actually succeeded.

This patch introduces both a new `USE_SYSTEMD` build option which controls
including the sd-daemon library as well as a `-Ws` runtime option which
runs haproxy in master-worker mode with systemd support.

When haproxy is running in master-worker mode with systemd support it will
send status messages to systemd using `sd_notify(3)` in the following cases:

- The master process forked off the worker processes (READY=1)
- The master process entered the `mworker_reload()` function (RELOADING=1)
- The master process received the SIGUSR1 or SIGTERM signal (STOPPING=1)

Change the unit file to specify `Type=notify` and replace master-worker
mode (`-W`) with master-worker mode with systemd support (`-Ws`).

Future evolutions of this feature could include making use of the `STATUS`
feature of `sd_notify()` to send information about the number of active
connections to systemd. This would require bidirectional communication
between the master and the workers and thus is left for future work.
