Subject: [PATCH] core: Check unit start rate limiting earlier
Fixes #17433. Currently, if any of the validations we do before we
check start rate limiting fail, we can still enter a busy loop as
no rate limiting gets applied. A common occurence of this scenario
is path units triggering a service that fails a condition check.
To fix the issue, we simply move up start rate limiting checks to
be the first thing we do when starting a unit. To achieve this,
we add a new method to the unit vtable and implement it for the
relevant unit types so that we can do the start rate limit checks
earlier on.
(cherry picked from commit 9727f2427ff6b2e1f4ab927cc57ad8e888f04e95)
Related: #2037395
[msekleta: I've deleted part of the original commit that adds test for
issue #17433. This was necessary because upstream commit assumes newer
organization of the test code which we don't have in RHEL-8 tree. As
a consequence we must add explicit test for this in the internal
test-suite.]
