This adds a new per-service OOMPolicy= (along with a global DefaultOOMPolicy=) that controls what to do if a process of the service is killed by the kernel's OOM killer. It has three different values: "continue" (old behaviour), "stop" (terminate the service), "kill" (let the kernel kill all the service's processes). On top of that, track OOM killer events per unit: generate a per-unit structured, recognizable log message when we see an OOM killer event, and put the service in a failure state if an OOM killer event was seen and the selected policy was not "continue". A new "result" is defined for this case: "oom-kill". All of this relies on new cgroupv2 kernel functionality: the "memory.events" notification interface and the "memory.oom.group" attribute (which makes the kernel kill all cgroup processes automatically).
