Improve bitcoind systemd service file

Add comment how further options can be added or existing ones
modified. Use /run/${RuntimeDirectory} for PID file.

Remove TimeoutStopSec, TimeoutStartSec, StartLimitInterval,
StartLimitBurst directives as those should be set indivdually.

Remove Group to user the bitcoin user's default group.

Changed Restart from 'always' to 'on-failure' (can also be overwritten
individually).

# It is not recommended to modify this file in-place, because it will
# be overwritten during package upgrades. If you want to add further
# options or overwrite existing ones then use
# $ systemctl edit bitcoind.service
# See "man systemd.service" for details.
# Note that almost all daemon options could be specified in
# /etc/bitcoin/bitcoin.conf
