Add systemd unit files
Largely inspired by https://lwn.net/Articles/584175/
"They must be suitable for every distribution to use."

Packagers must define:
- ExecStart=/path/to/bip_env.sh
- Environment=BIP_DEFAULT_CONFIG='/path/to/default/bip'
using a unit file drop-in bip-config.service.d/<distrib>.conf

Notes about systemd unit files for bip.
Distro specific commandline configuration is provided by installing a script
named. A default script named bip_env.sh is provided.
This should write /run/sysconfig/bip based on configuration
information such as in /etc/sysconfig/bip or /etc/defaults/bip. It is run once
by bip-config.service.
Distro specific path for bip_env.sh script must be set using a
bip-config.service.d/distrib.conf unit file drop-in:
[Service]
ExecStart=/path/to/bip_env.sh
bip_env.sh try some default paths for the default configuration file: either
/etc/default/bip or /etc/sysconfig/bip.
Optionaly, the default configuration file path can be set too:
[Service]
ExecStart=/path/to/bip_env.sh
Environment=BIP_DEFAULT_CONFIG='/path/to/default/bip'
