Remains backwards compatible for now, but finit.show_status is as of 4.3
deprecated. Likely to be removed int 5.0

- Add `type:forking` service option to trigger guessing pidfile to
watch for, instead of `pid:!foo` option, which is not intuitive.
This option may likely also survive into the new file format :)
- Update docs and add examples
- Update start-stop-serv.sh test case with this new variant

This patch adds the -v,--version option to initctl, which acts as an
alias to the 'version' command. For now they end up in the same old
function, printing the program version. However, in time this will be
changed so that the 'version' command asks a running Finit for its
version instead of assuming the daemon is of the same version.

As suggested in issue #197, this new command: 'initctl id [NAME]'
lists identities of all, or named, services. E.g,
# initctl id telnetd
telnetd:23
telnetd:2323
The NAME argument is optional, when omitted it lists all enabled
run/task/sysv/service in the system, with their full name, and any
optional identitty. E.g.
# initctl id
dropbear
tty:console
mdnsd
mini-snmpd
smcrouted
sntpd
ssdpd
sysklogd
watchdogd
httpd
telnetd:23
telnetd:2323

When the system has multiple services 'foo' the initctl command
'status foo' should give a focused overview of all matching foo:*,
whereas a 'status foo:2' should show the detailed view of that
particular instance.
