Joachim Wiberg f0914f6d32 Fix 'initctl reload NAME' not updating conditions for dependents
When reloading a specific service with 'initctl reload foo', the
pid/foo and service/foo/ready conditions were never cleared, so
dependent services were not notified of the reload.

Clear the service's pid condition and, for pid/none notify types,
the ready condition before reloading.  The conditions are then
reasserted by the pidfile inotify handler when the service touches
its PID file after processing SIGHUP.

For s6/systemd services the ready condition is left intact since
their readiness notification may not re-trigger on SIGHUP.
