Stop Hand-Crafting /run and /tmp Trees: Practical systemd-tmpfiles on Linux

Stop Hand-Crafting /run and /tmp Trees: Practical systemd-tmpfiles on Linux Most Linux hosts already run systemd-tmpfiles on every boot. Packages drop snippets under /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/, the early boot units create volatile trees under /run and friends, and a timer later ages junk out of /tmp and /var/tmp.
