This partially reverts commit e58ba80a40. Those
aliases were removed as part of the removal of sysvinit compat, but the removal
was immediately reported as a regression by users. In particular, users can
have one of those set as the default target, or use those names in Wants= or
Requires= dependencies. At least in Fedora, the removal was immediately
reverted.
When looking at our "portability and stability promise", I noticed that those
units are explicitly listed in the promise. Let's restore them upstream. They
are conditionalized under a new -Dcompat-sysv-interfaces=bool option, so that
downstreams like Arch that wasnt to strictly avoid legacy interfaces can easily
disable them. They are dropped from the docs, like we do for all deprecated
interfaces.
