man: drop discouragment of runtime and vendor drop-ins
In certain situations drop-ins in /usr/lib/ are useful, for example when one package wants to modify the behaviour of another package, or the vendor wants to tweak some upstream unit without patching. Drop-ins in /run are useful for testing, and may also be created by systemd itself. Follow-up for the discussion in #2103.
