Issue #52 suggested calling service_reload_dynamic() automatically after run-parts and /etc/rc.local. This may seem like a good idea, but not only does it create extra overhead, it currently also freezes the boot and fails to present a login prompt if a run-parts directory exists. Yes, the directory can be empty, it just have to exist to trigger this regression. While trying to find the root cause I realized this was all just wrong. If the user does something that requires reloading finit, they should call `initctl reload` from the script instead. Signed-off-by: Joachim Nilsson <troglobit@gmail.com>

A user of an embedded system may want to extend/modify services declared in
/etc/finit.d/at bootvia
runparts /some/other/path.When scripts in the run-parts(8) directory have run, Finit should check if any service/tasklet/runlet have
been made "dirty" and then reload them.
