Let systemd start ejabberd in foreground

Daemons started by systemd shouldn't fork into the background if
possible, because if multiple forked processes exist, systemd has
a hard time determining the main process ID.

In a memory constrained environment, the OOM killer may cause
ejabberd to exit without any trace. Because epmd keeps running,
systemd wouldn't notice the error condition, and as a result it
won't restart the server.

With ejabberd running in foreground, systemd is able to obtain the
correct exit code (137 in this case, instead of 0) and schedules a
restart. The administrator can then see what happend by looking at
systemctl status ejabberd.
