  1. man: document footgun on SocketUser=

    `SocketUser=` might have inconsistent results if they're inside a path
    specified by `RuntimeDirectory=` (or any other directory option where
    directories are chown'ed on startup).
    
    Especially in the case of creating a socket-activated service that's
    reachable for another user (the most common usecase for this option),
    it feels prudent to document this caveat, considering how frequently
    these unix domain sockets happen to be created in /run.
    
    I just ran into this, and it seems
    systemd#8635 is at least another
    documented case.
