Subject: [PATCH] service: relax PID file symlink chain checks a bit (#8133)
Let's read the PID file after all if there's a potentially unsafe
symlink chain in place. But if we do, then refuse taking the PID if its
outside of the cgroup.
Fixes: #8085
(cherry picked from commit 73969ab61c39357e6892747e43307fbf07cafbed)
(cherry picked from commit ce87ed7b47c61e649a0f9da39d272631b9524740)
Resolves: #1729414
