    toaster-manual: update runbuilds instructions

    Added sample configuration files and instructions for the runbuilds
    systemd service. Service runs runbuilds in a screen session for user
convenience. User can attach to the session to see the runbuilds output,
    monitor logs and build environment.

-                      This service needs to be running in order to dispatch
-                      builds.
-                      Use this command:
+                      Prepare systemd service to run toaster builds.
+                      Here is a sample configuration file for the service:
                       <literallayout class='monospaced'>
-   /var/www/toaster/poky/bitbake/lib/toaster/manage.py runbuilds
+   [Unit]
+   Description=Toaster runbuilds
+
+   [Service]
+   Type=forking
+   User=toaster
+ ExecStart=/usr/bin/screen -d -m -S runbuilds /var/www/toaster/poky/bitbake/lib/toaster/runbuilds-service.sh start
+   ExecStop=/usr/bin/screen -S runbuilds -X quit
+   WorkingDirectory=/var/www/toaster/poky
+


This is kind of interesting from a developer of Toaster point of view but I don't think we should be recommending screen in the production setup. Toaster should be logging all the useful output anyway.

+ And the runbuilds-service.sh script that you should put into /var/www/toaster/poky/bitbake/lib/toaster/ and
+                      set executable permissions to it.
                       <literallayout class='monospaced'>

+ As service is running in a detached screen session you can attach to it using this command:

+   $ sudo su - toaster
+   $ screen -rS runbuilds
+                      </literallayout>
+ And detach from it again using 'Ctrl-a' followed by 'd' key combination.

               You can now open up a browser and start using Toaster.
