[lttng-dev] Automating lttng-sessiond startup

[Mathieu Desnoyers]

We plan to put these init scripts into extras/ within lttng-tools at
some point, with appropriate documentation.

This part of the install process is rather hard to automate nowadays,
since every distribution has its own init system (upstrart, initrd,
others).

Thanks,

Mathieu
