### Description
After installing kamailio on Ubuntu (20.04 and 22.04) using normal kamailio.org
instructions, things work fine. However, a developer is working on a large
project as root, and occasionally restarts kamailio with the command "kamctl
<start|stop|restart>", rather than the OS command "systemctl
<stop|start|restart> kamailio". After that, any attempt to restart or check
status using systmectl fails, and rebooting the server occasionally fails to
restart kamailio.
### Troubleshooting
#### Reproduction
Install ubuntu 22.04 or 20.04. When up and running, try this:
`systemctl status kamailio` (everything looks good)
`ps -C kamailio -o comm,uid,euid,pid,ppid` (all happy, Kamailio running as user
kamailio)
`kamctl restart`
`ps -C kamailio -o comm,uid,euid,pid,ppid` (Yes it's running, but as root, not
kamailio)
`systemctl status kamailio` (FAILS, 20.04 reports "Failed to start", 22.04
reports "kamailio.service: Deactivated successfully")
`systemctl restart kamailio` (FAILS - same reports as preceding "status"
command)
#### Debugging Data
<!--
If you got a core dump, use gdb to extract troubleshooting data - full
backtrace,
local variables and the list of the code at the issue location.
gdb /path/to/kamailio /path/to/corefile
bt full
info locals
list
If you are familiar with gdb, feel free to attach more of what you consider to
be relevant.

#### Log Messages
<!--
Check the syslog file and if there are relevant log messages printed by
Kamailio, add them next, or attach to issue, or provide a link to download them
(e.g., to a pastebin site).

After command systemctl restart kamailio:

#### SIP Traffic
<!--
If the issue is exposed by processing specific SIP messages, grab them with
ngrep or save in a pcap file, then add them next, or attach to issue, or
provide a link to download them (e.g., to a pastebin site).

```
(paste your sip traffic here)
```
### Possible Solutions
Modify kamctl et. al. to call systemctl for start, stop, restart commands.
Alternatively have kamctl call setuid() before start, restart, stop commands.
