core: when a service's ExecStartPre= times out, skip ExecStop=
This makes sure we never run two control processes at the same time, we cannot keep track off. This introduces a slight change of behaviour but cleans up the definition of ExecStop= and ExecStopPost=. The former is now invoked only if the service managed to start-up correctly. The latter is called even if start-up failed half-way. Thus, ExecStopPost= may be used as clean-up step for both successful and failed start-up attempts, but ExecStop='s purpose is clearly defined as being responsible for shutting down the service and nothing else. The precise behaviour of this was not documented yet. This commit adds the necessary docs. Fixes: #1254
