[PATCH] liveupdate: document systemd support

[luca.boccassi at gmail.com]

From: Luca Boccassi <luca.boccassi at gmail.com>

systemd v261 will add native support for LUO via the file descriptor
store mechanism. Add a brief paragraph in the LUO userspace documentation
page to inform users.

NOTE: the external links will mention LUO after the next release is
      published, which should happen within ~4 weeks

+Userspace Integration
+=====================
+
+systemd (since version v261) uses LUO to preserve its per-service file
+descriptor store across a kexec-based live update. Services opt in by setting
+``FileDescriptorStoreMax=`` and ``FileDescriptorStorePreserve=`` in their unit,
+and push file descriptors with a name into the store via
+``sd_pid_notify_with_fds(... "FDSTORE=1\nFDNAME=foo")``.
+
+Services may also create their own LUO sessions (via ``/dev/liveupdate``) and
+push the resulting session fds into their file descriptor store like any other
+fd. systemd detects such session fds and handles them accordingly, and
+hands the re-retrieved session fd back to the service after kexec, using the
+existing file descriptor store service interface.
+
