Hey!

BIRD supports graceful restart for BGP but it needs to be enabled with
- -R and in configuration. Even after that, doing a systemctl restart
bird or a service bird restart or a restart during upgrade doesn't
work as expected. To enforce BGP graceful restart, currently, BIRD
needs to be killed with -9 to not close the BGP sessions properly.

I would suggest for systemd to add "KillSignal=SIGKILL", for upstart
to add "kill signal KILL" and for init.d to use
"--retry=KILL/5/KILL/5". I would be happy to propose and test a patch
if this seems an acceptable solution. If not, we could just document
that in README.Debian instead.
