concept introduced with v248, and thus allows layering multiple
images when setting up the root filesystem of the service.

processes dumping core and include it in the coredump report.

* Units using ConditionNeedsUpdate= will no longer be activated in
the initrd.
* It is now possible to list a template unit in WantedBy= or RequiredBy=
of another template unit, which will be triggered using the same
instance name.
* A new MemoryAvailable property is available for units. If the unit,
or the slice(s) it is part of, have a memory limit set via MemoryMax=/
MemoryHigh=, MemoryAvailable will indicate how much more memory the
unit can claim before hitting the limit(s).
* systemd-coredump will now try to stay below the cgroup memory limit
placed on itself or one of the slices it runs under, if the storage
area for core files (/var/lib/systemd/coredump/) is placed on a tmpfs,
since files written on such filesystems count toward the cgroup memory
limit. If there is not enough available memory in such cases to store
the core file uncompressed, systemd-coredump will skip to compressed
storage directly (if enabled) and it will avoid analyzing the core file
to print backtrace and metadata in the journal.
* tmpfiles.d gained a new '=' modifier to check if the type of a path
matches the configured expectations, and remove it if not.
* tmpfiles.d's 'Age' now accepts an 'age-by' argument, which allows to
specify which of the several available filesystem timestamp to look
at when deciding whether a path has aged enough to be cleaned.
* Journal files, which are allocated in fixed incremenets, are now
truncated when rotated/archived to remove unused space from their tails.
