conf-parser: let's explicitly deprecate .include in unit files
.include lines are already deprecated somewhat, and for example explicitly not mentioned in the documentation for this reason. Let's get one step further and generatea warning when we encounter them (but still process them). Why are they deprecated? Because they are semantically awful — they complicate stat() based mtime checks for configuration files and they allow arbitrary loops we currently have zero protection against and really shouldn't have to have.
