This is generally the safer approach, and is what container managers (including nspawn) do, hence let's move to this too for our own services. This is particularly useful as this this means the new @system-service system call filter group will get serious real-life testing quickly. This also switches from firing SIGSYS on unexpected syscalls to returning EPERM. This would have probably been a better default anyway, but it's hard to change that these days. When whitelisting system calls SIGSYS is highly problematic as system calls that are newly introduced to Linux become minefields for services otherwise. Note that this enables a system call filter for udev for the first time, and will block @clock, @mount and @swap from it. Some downstream distributions might want to revert this locally if they want to permit unsafe operations on udev rules, but in general this shiuld be mostly safe, as we already set MountFlags=shared for udevd, hence at least @mount won't change anything.
