The ability to start a new unit with 'systemctl start ...' should not
depend on whether there are other units in the directory. Previously,
an additional 'systemctl daemon-reload' would be necessary to tell
systemd to update the list of unit lookup paths.

Note: I did s/MANAGER/SYSTEMD/ everywhere, even though it makes the
patch quite verbose. Nevertheless, keeping MANAGER prefix in some
places, and SYSTEMD prefix in others would just lead to confusion down
the road. Better to rip off the band-aid now.

Previously generated units were always placed at the end of the search
path. With this change there will be three unit dirs instead of one, to
place generated entries at the beginning, in the middle and at the end
of the search path:
beginning: for units that need to override all configuration, regardless
of user or vendor. Example use: system-update-generator uses this to
temporarily redirect default.target.
middle: for units that need to override vendor configuration, but not
vendor configuration. Example use: /etc/fstab should override vendor
supplied configuration (think /tmp), but should not override native user
configuration.
end: does not override anything but is available as well. Possible usage
might be to convert D-Bus bus service files to native units but allowing
vendor supplied native units to win.
