scope: Support RuntimeMaxSec= directive in scope units
Just as `RuntimeMaxSec=` is supported for service units, add support for it to scope units. This will gracefully kill a scope after the timeout expires from the moment the scope enters the running state. This could be used for time-limited login sessions, for example. Signed-off-by: Philip Withnall <withnall@endlessm.com> Fixes: #12035
