Item prototypes for Service units discovery

Name	Description	Type	Key and additional info
{#UNIT.NAME}: Get unit info	Returns all properties of a systemd service unit. Unit description: {#UNIT.DESCRIPTION}.	Zabbix agent	systemd.unit.get["{#UNIT.NAME}"]
{#UNIT.NAME}: Active state	State value that reflects whether the unit is currently active or not. The following states are currently defined: "active", "reloading", "inactive", "failed", "activating", and "deactivating".	Dependent item	systemd.service.active_state["{#UNIT.NAME}"] Preprocessing JSON Path: $.ActiveState.state Discard unchanged with heartbeat: 30m
{#UNIT.NAME}: Load state	State value that reflects whether the configuration file of this unit has been loaded. The following states are currently defined: "loaded", "error", and "masked".	Dependent item	systemd.service.load_state["{#UNIT.NAME}"] Preprocessing JSON Path: $.LoadState.state Discard unchanged with heartbeat: 30m
{#UNIT.NAME}: Unit file state	Encodes the install state of the unit file of FragmentPath. It currently knows the following states: "enabled", "enabled-runtime", "linked", "linked-runtime", "masked", "masked-runtime", "static", "disabled", and "invalid".	Dependent item	systemd.service.unitfile_state["{#UNIT.NAME}"] Preprocessing JSON Path: $.UnitFileState.state Discard unchanged with heartbeat: 30m
{#UNIT.NAME}: Active time	Number of seconds since unit entered the active state.	Dependent item	systemd.service.uptime["{#UNIT.NAME}"] Preprocessing JavaScript: The text is too long. Please see the template.
