-- Install a basic init script

**this operation requires superuser privileges**

# make install-init

A basic init script is provided for convenience. It runs luafcgid under the
system user www-data. Due to the fact that (for the moment?) luafcgid does not
have support for dropping the superuser privileges, the start-stop-daemon
wrapper is used for launching the daemon under a restricted user, while the
paths for the UNIX socket and PID file are not the expected paths from /var/run.

They are placed into /var/tmp:

/var/tmp/luafcgid.pid - the location of the PID file
/var/tmp/luafcgid.sock - the location of the listening UNIX socket

The log file is placed here:

/var/log/luafcgid/luafcgid.log
