utmp: turn systemd-update-utmp-shutdown.service into a normal runtime service
With this change systemd-update-utmp-shutdown.service is replaced by systemd-update-utmp.service which is started at boot and stays around until shutdown. This allows us to properly order the unit against both /var/log and auditd. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=853104 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64365
