Lennart Poettering f32b43bda4 core: remove support for RequiresOverridable= and RequisiteOverridable=
As discussed at systemd.conf 2015 and on also raised on the ML:

http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-November/034880.html

This removes the two XyzOverridable= unit dependencies, that were
basically never used, and do not enhance user experience in any way.
Most folks looking for the functionality this provides probably opt for
the "ignore-dependencies" job mode, and that's probably a good idea.

Hence, let's simplify systemd's dependency engine and remove these two
dependency types (and their inverses).

The unit file parser and the dbus property parser will now redirect
the settings/properties to result in an equivalent non-overridable
dependency. In the case of the unit file parser we generate a warning,
to inform the user.

The dbus properties for this unit type stay available on the unit
objects, but they are now hidden from usual introspection and will
always return the empty list when queried.

This should provide enough compatibility for the few unit files that
actually ever made use of this.

<title>Description</title>
<para><command>systemd-analyze</command> may be used to determine
system boot-up performance statistics and retrieve other state and
tracing information from the system and service manager, and to
verify the correctness of unit files.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze time</command> prints the time
spent in the kernel before userspace has been reached, the time
spent in the initial RAM disk (initrd) before normal system
userspace has been reached, and the time normal system userspace
took to initialize. Note that these measurements simply measure
the time passed up to the point where all system services have
been spawned, but not necessarily until they fully finished
initialization or the disk is idle.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze blame</command> prints a list of
all running units, ordered by the time they took to initialize.
This information may be used to optimize boot-up times. Note that
the output might be misleading as the initialization of one
service might be slow simply because it waits for the
initialization of another service to complete.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze critical-chain
[<replaceable>UNIT...</replaceable>]</command> prints a tree of
the time-critical chain of units (for each of the specified
<replaceable>UNIT</replaceable>s or for the default target
otherwise). The time after the unit is active or started is
printed after the "@" character. The time the unit takes to start
is printed after the "+" character. Note that the output might be
misleading as the initialization of one service might depend on
socket activation and because of the parallel execution of
units.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze plot</command> prints an SVG
graphic detailing which system services have been started at what
time, highlighting the time they spent on initialization.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze dot</command> generates textual
dependency graph description in dot format for further processing
with the GraphViz
<citerefentry project='die-net'><refentrytitle>dot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
tool. Use a command line like <command>systemd-analyze dot | dot
-Tsvg > systemd.svg</command> to generate a graphical dependency
tree. Unless <option>--order</option> or
<option>--require</option> is passed, the generated graph will
show both ordering and requirement dependencies. Optional pattern
globbing style specifications (e.g. <filename>*.target</filename>)
may be given at the end. A unit dependency is included in the
graph if any of these patterns match either the origin or
destination node.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze dump</command> outputs a (usually
very long) human-readable serialization of the complete server
state. Its format is subject to change without notice and should
not be parsed by applications.</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze set-log-level
<replaceable>LEVEL</replaceable></command> changes the current log
level of the <command>systemd</command> daemon to
<replaceable>LEVEL</replaceable> (accepts the same values as
<option>--log-level=</option> described in
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>).</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze set-log-target
<replaceable>TARGET</replaceable></command> changes the current log
target of the <command>systemd</command> daemon to
<replaceable>TARGET</replaceable> (accepts the same values as
<option>--log-target=</option>, described in
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>).</para>
<para><command>systemd-analyze verify</command> will load unit
files and print warnings if any errors are detected. Files
specified on the command line will be loaded, but also any other
units referenced by them. This command works by prepending the
directories for all command line arguments at the beginning of the
unit load path, which means that all units files found in those
directories will be used in preference to the unit files found in
the standard locations, even if not listed explicitly.</para>
<para>If no command is passed, <command>systemd-analyze
time</command> is implied.</para>

<option>--order</option> is passed, only dependencies of type

shown. If <option>--require</option> is passed, only
dependencies of type <varname>Requires=</varname>,
<varname>Requisite=</varname>,
<varname>Wants=</varname> and <varname>Conflicts=</varname>

pattern as an argument, which will be matched against the
left-hand and the right-hand, respectively, nodes of a
relationship.</para>
<para>Each of these can be used more than once, in which case
the unit name must match one of the values. When tests for
both sides of the relation are present, a relation must pass
both tests to be shown. When patterns are also specified as
positional arguments, they must match at least one side of the
relation. In other words, patterns specified with those two
options will trim the list of edges matched by the positional
arguments, if any are given, and fully determine the list of
edges shown otherwise.</para></listitem>
