[Bug 1323274] Re: Restore Debian's init.d script for insserv compatibility

For me it would probably be less confusing to fix mpd (and possibly
others) to not depend on alsa-utils, instead of adding no-op jobs and
service files...?

Bug description:
  We want/need to follow Debian's migration from static rc?.d/
  priorities to dynamic insserv priorities. See
  https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-
  dev/ubuntu/utopic/sysvinit/unreviewed/+merge/219999 for details.

  This is a tracking bug for all Ubuntu init.d scripts that have LSB
  header dependencies to init.d scripts which are in Debian, but not in
  Ubuntu. E. g.

  /etc/init.d/mpd:# Should-Start:      autofs $network $named alsa-utils
  pulseaudio avahi-daemon

  But there is no /etc/init.d/alsa-utils in the Ubuntu package.

  - greylistd is a false positive (changed recently)
  - cman (src:redhat-cluster) does not exist at all in Ubuntu, so we need to drop/fix its init.d dependencies.
  - chef-server script comes from chef-server-api which is stuck in -proposed due to uninstallability
