Title: Added reload_on_change property that defines if monit should be reloaded when configuration changes (default: true)

The reload when configuration change feature was making monit start when I was bootstrapping my node, but I wanted to avoid this behavior, otherwise monit will start services that are not ready to start yet. So, setting this value to false will avoid monit to be started during bootstrap.
