Update to 1.29.2 and Change logfile path from /etc/syncthing/syncthing
log to /var/log/syncthing.log.
This utilizes tmpfs (memory-based storage) to prevent disk usage growth
caused by log file accumulation during extended operation.
Benefits:
- Avoids storage saturation from excessive log growth.
- Aligns with best practices for temporary log management.
- For systems using flash storage (e.g., SSDs or eMMC), storing logs in
tmpfs avoids flash memory wear caused by frequent writes to
/etc/syncthing.

The group does not always have the same name as user, and when I try
to run syncthing with nobody I get an error. Since nobody belongs to
the group nogroup, I added some code to find out which group user
belongs to.

default inotify limits at 8k are
low for serious usage
and the GUI shows errors like
"Failed to start filesystem watcher
for folder XXXX"
increase them with this config file
as instructed by syncthing's FAQ.

[increased package release]
Signed-off-by: Paul Spooren <mail@aparcar.org>
Added the ability to enable/disable via a config file;
the default is enabled for backwards compatibility.
This is an additional service, so running it the
same priority as dnsmasq, etc does not make sense.
Added USE_PROCD=1
"done" starts at "START=95", so this should start earlier
Added STOP=10 to stop syncthing early
