Support delayed load of services from plugins and bundled services

This adds a new function conf_save_service() replacing service_register() for
plugins and bundled services like watchdogd, keventd, runparts, etc.

The benefits to this change are several:

 - Plugin/Bundled services no longer risk starting before udev or other
   critical services/task have started
 - Definitions can be overridden by an administrator (see docs)
 - Increases visibility (user: where are all these services coming from?)
   Previously the origin (file the service was loaded from) was NULL.
 - Adds another level of extensibility to Finit

The most notable change is that dbus is no longer started before udevd.
