services: Reorganize services, detect X Detect X autostart a bit better with a separate service. The service relies on a shell script which searches for a socket which X creates on startup and only finishes when it finds the socket succesfully. This makes services which need X to start successfully a bit more robust, and while it can still break if X takes too long, it should be more stable now. Finally, services can restart more quickly when ended since they don't require the 2+ `RestartSec` option to be present anymore to successfully start. 2020-09-24 14:24:42 +00:00			`Requires=x-started-confirm.service`
