core: add transient units
Transient units can be created via the bus API. They are configured via the method call parameters rather than on-disk files. They are subject to normal GC. Transient units currently may only be created for services (however, we will extend this), and currently only ExecStart= and the cgroup parameters can be configured (also to be extended). Transient units require a unique name, that previously had no configuration file on disk. A tool systemd-run is added that makes use of this functionality to run arbitrary command lines as transient services: $ systemd-run /bin/ping www.heise.de Will cause systemd to create a new transient service and run ping in it.
