Systemd service units may require additional environment settings to be effective. This patch adds two new variables to the systemd_service role which will allow operators to add environment variables to a given service as needed. These options be be supplied globally or from within a service definition. Documentation on how these options are used has been added to the defaults file. A test has been added to ensure we're exercising the new capability. Change-Id: If4ea993b7173ac3218f051a1d4f0fba9aeb838ea Signed-off-by: Kevin Carter <kevin@cloudnull.com>
