systemctl: usable status command for special units (#4072)
Prior to this commit, users could be given an unusable command to run if
they attempted to stop or start special services. For example:
$ systemctl stop -- -.mount
Failed to stop -.mount: Operation refused, unit -.mount may be \
requested by dependency only.
See system logs and 'systemctl status -.mount' for details.
$ systemctl status -.mount
systemctl: invalid option -- '.'
This adds a '--' to the example command in these situations.
