commit 6cfe2fde1cc919c2333a5749ea1cbc31fa757077
Author: Lennart Poettering <lennart at poettering.net>

    core: introduce new Restart=on-abnormal setting
    
    Restart=on-abnormal is similar to Restart=on-failure, but avoids
    restarts on unclean exit codes (but still doing restarts on all
    obviously unclean exits, such as timeouts, signals, coredumps, watchdog
    timeouts).
