systemctl: remove --follow option
Given that "journalctl -u" exists now there's no need to duplicate this functionality in systemctl, so let's drop this, especially given that it always felt a bit awkward to overload "-f" to both --force and --follow, and to have continues output with a status header for this. systemctl status -f avahi-daemon now becomes: journalctl -fu avahi-daemon Which is shorter and a lot less redundant.
