Re: On possibly "finer" dependencies in s6-rc

I just realised that we can set up a oneshot for the disjunction with
its dependencies being the intersection of the dependencies of all
services in the disjunction, with the `up' and `down' being something
like `s6-svwait -o -[ud] srv1 srv2 ...' ([ud]: `u' for `up', `d' for
`down'), so perhaps no change is need after all in s6-rc.

Nevertheless, s6-svwait -o seems to also fail if some failure occurs
before the wanted state is reached, eg. one `dnscrypt-proxy' instance
reporting permanent failure before another one comes up successfully.
So we might need to add an option to ignore such failures.
