Update service dependencies to start on early boot
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This changes log2ram dependencies to start as early as possible, before other
services that may require access to /var/log, including rsyslog and
systemd-journald.

Additional dependencies on shutdown.target are required to ensure that
the service will be stopped at shutdown/reboot when DefaultDependencies
is set to "no" [1].

RequiresMountsFor declares dependency on /var mount when it is a mount point.

IgnoreOnIsolate prevents stopping the service when isolating another unit.
