Title: add collectd systemd service file 

systemd is a sysvinit replacement (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systemd for more information). One of the goals of systemd is to encourage standardization between different distributions. I would like to ask you to accept this service file as the upstream distributor, so that other distributions can use the same service file and don’t have to ship their own.

Please include this file in your next release (just like in init script).

By the way: I’m not sure whether I put this file in the right location. As far as I understand, the contrib directory is part of the release tarballs. However, systemd files usually go to /lib/systemd/system (on every linux distro). So, I guess it’d be good to install the file, but I’ll leave that up to you.
