- Improved get_service_name filter plugin (clearer suffix handling, consistent var names).
- Added MODE_ASSERT flag to optionally execute validation/assertion tasks.
- Fixed systemd unit handling: consistent use of %I instead of %i, correct escaping of instance names.
- Unified on_failure behavior and alarm composer scripts.
- Cleaned up redundant logging, handlers, and debug config.
- Strengthened sys-service template resolution with assert (only active when MODE_ASSERT).
- Simplified timer and suffix handling with get_service_name filter.
- Hardened sensitive tasks with no_log.
- Added conditional asserts across roles (Keycloak, DNS, Mailu, Discourse, etc.).
These changes improve consistency, safety, and validation across the automation stack.

- Fixed bug where not both alarm services (email + telegram) were triggered.
- Removed direct OnFailure references for email and telegram,
now handled by unified compose service.
- Introduced 01_core.yml in sys-ctl-alm-compose to structure
role execution (subservices → core service → test run).
- Added configurable variables SYSTEMCTL_ALARM_COMPOSER_SUBSERVICES
and SYSTEMCTL_ALARM_COMPOSER_DUMMY_MESSAGE.
- Replaced dedicated @.service template with generic systemctl template
using systemctl_tpl_* variables for flexibility.
- Updated script.sh.j2 to collect exit codes and print clear errors.
- Fixed typos and streamlined vars in sys-systemctl.

- update alarm compose unit to run email/telegram notifiers independently via multiple ExecStart lines
- ensure cleanup backup dependencies are included before timer setup with handler flush

- Unified service templates into generic systemctl templates
- Introduced reusable filter plugins for script path handling
- Updated path variables and service/timer definitions
- Migrated roles (backup, cleanup, repair, etc.) to use systemctl role
- Added sys-daemon role for core systemd cleanup
- Simplified timer handling via sys-timer role
Note: This is a large refactor and some errors may still exist. Further testing and adjustments will be needed.
This commit restructures systemctl service definitions and category mappings.
Motivation: Alarm-related bugs revealed inconsistencies in service and role handling.
Preparation step: lays the groundwork for fixing the alarm issues by aligning categories, roles, and service templates.
