Title:
  Add systemd support

Status in Epoptes:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Now that Debian/Ubuntu are switching to systemd as default, it's time
  to Epoptes provide a better systemd support, which envolves:

   * Ship systemd service unit files for both epoptes[-server] and
  epoptes-client.

   * Add "systemctl reboot" and "systemctl poweroff" fallbacks to
  /usr/share/epoptes-client/endsession.

   * Gather more information from logind, specially about seats.

  About service unit files, I've written the following examples for
  openSUSE package:

  
  epoptes.service:

  [Unit]
  Description=A twisted-based daemon that manages epoptes-client
  After=syslog.target

  [Service]
  Type=forking
  PIDFile=/run/epoptes.pid
  ExecStartPre=/bin/sh -c "if ! [ -s /etc/epoptes/server.key ] || ! [ -s /etc/epoptes/server.crt ]; then openssl req -batch -x509 -nodes -newkey rsa:1024 -days 3652 -keyout /etc/epoptes/server.key -out /etc/epoptes/server.crt; chmod 600 /etc/epoptes/server.key; fi"
  ExecStart=/usr/bin/twistd --pidfile /var/run/epoptes.pid --logfile /var/log/epoptes.log epoptes

  [Install]
  WantedBy=multi-user.target


  
  epoptes-client.service:

  [Unit]
  Description=Epoptes-client system daemon
  Wants=network-online.target
  After=network-online.target

  [Service]
  EnvironmentFile=-/etc/default/epoptes-client
  ExecStartPre=/bin/sh -c "if ! [ -s /etc/epoptes/server.crt ]; then /usr/sbin/epoptes-client -c ${SERVER}; fi"
  ExecStart=/usr/sbin/epoptes-client

  [Install]
  WantedBy=multi-user.target

  NOTE: network-online.target may require that you explicitly enable the
  *-wait-online.service that matches your current network management
  mechanism (NetworkManager, systemd-networkd, etc.)

  In the case one requires that epoptes-client service automatically
  restarts if connection is lost, he can provide the following drop-in:

  /etc/systemd/system/epoptes-client.service.d/auto-reconnect.conf:

  [Service]
  Restart=always
