On Debian, systemd is not mandatory, so people could still use SysV init scripts. Moreover, the "service" commands handle both cases. On Ubuntu, systemd is mandatory since 16.04. However, the integration with SysV still exist and the conserver package is unmodified compared to Debian and only ships a SysV init script. Moreover, the override was done in /usr/lib/systemd/system, a directory not existing on most Debian systems. Instead, we keep acting like everyone was using SysV init and let the appropriate compatibility bits in the distribution handle the differences.

Fix #6.
Wait for acceptances test to run, I did not run them. Also, I do not use this branch myself as I am running a too old version of Puppet, but I tested the same change on an older version with Ubuntu 12.04, 16.04 and 18.04. Debian packaging is unmodified between Ubuntu and Debian.
