This commit adds a new function checkconfig() to the OpenRC service script. All it does is run the server with the "--test" flag in addition to the usual command-line arguments. The new command is not user-facing, but lets us avoid restarting the daemon with a broken config. That helps when the user changes his configuration while the daemon is running, and then tries to restart() not knowing that the new config is broken. A priori, we would stop the daemon and then the error would only become visible when the subsequent start() command failed. Refusing to stop() with a broken configuration is a nicer thing to do.
