The initial implementation was done using a naive translator of the
legacy one-liner format key by key, so it inherited encodings that the
block format exists to remove: a timeout packed into a script path, a
small comma-and-colon language inside the log string, sigils standing in
for booleans, and a log key (services) carrying three (!) types.
Settled naming against systemd, OpenRC, FreeBSD rc.subr, s6 and SMF.
Match systemd's semantics, not its naming.
pid -> pidfile, plus pidfile-create for the rare case
where Finit writes the file rather than the daemon
environment -> envfile, since it names a file to source, and the
top-level environment {} block sets variables
pre/post/... -> exec-start-pre, exec-start-ready, exec-stop,
exec-stop-post, exec-reload, exec-cleanup, each
with its own -timeout instead of "SEC,script"
halt, kill -> stop-signal, stop-timeout
restart -> restart for the policy, restart-max for the count
log -> a block with file, priority and identity, where
/dev/null and /dev/console are spelled as paths
group -> group and extra-groups, no longer positional
nowarn -> a leading - on command, as on envfile
List-valued keys take plural names. Aliases are desc, cond, mod,
caps, env, halt and kill; an alias may abbreviate the canonical name
or preserve a legacy spelling, nothing else.

A template in the block format registered garbage. conf_parse_file()
routed every file with an '@' in its name straight to the legacy
parser, which read the block line by line: the section header became a
service whose command was the section title, and each key = value line
below it became an environment variable.
service serv:%i { ... } -> service 'serv:eth0' with argument '{'
Substitute %i over the whole file before parsing instead, so format
detection and both parsers see finished text. A bare name@.conf is
still skipped, it is the template rather than an instance of one.
The legacy parser no longer opens the file or substitutes per line, it
is handed the instantiated buffer, so the template convention now has
one implementation instead of two. conf_is_template() applies
basenm(), a directory with an '@' in its name is not a template.
libconfuse cannot name a buffer it parses before 3.4, so a typo in a
template would be reported against "[buf]". Parse through fmemopen()
with the file name preset until the floor moves.
