Avoids race condition if using a Type=forking systemd service

Looks reasonable. Do you see any chance of side effects? All UID changes and such must have happened before. Probably safe.

I don't see any side effects. Basically witePifDFile() is just moved up one line into forkAndGo() (and into the parent process).
