wish: systemd ".service" and ".timer" files #1

Nice idea. A systemd service file would make it even easier to manager on common Linux distros.

Thank you for the suggestion, it'dd be good to have. Although this is a very simple web server and is a temporary solution until https://github.com/actions/cache/issues/505 gives out full support to GHE.

A .service and .timer file could also be created for the cache clearing function so that as part of installing the project, the cache is getting pruned as well.

systemd unit files would not be required to be set up if the service is run as a "service container", as described in https://github.com/kevincobain2000/cache-http/pull/8

And no cron-job / timer would be required if the suggestion to automatically do cache pruning maintenance after new uploads, as suggested in https://github.com/kevincobain2000/cache-http/issues/9

So I'm closing this issue because I think those other approaches make the project easier to use.
