[PATCH] base-files: sysupgrade: store status of system-services

[Eneas U de Queiroz]

+1
I agree 100% with Adrian on this one.  Enable by default, add option
to disable.  Disabled services are, intuitively, part of the
configuration being saved.  So, it should not be saved when '-n' is
given.  I may be stretching things a bit, but I would consider this a
fix, not a feature change ;-).

Cheers,

Eneas
