ntpd.service.patch

Change the .service file to the preferred layout; good default configuration without conf.d environment variables.
Users can do:
systemctl edit ntpd.service
To override the service startup behaviour.
Also, ntpd supports --nofork and systemd maintainers prefer services to user the Type=simple startup method[1], so change that too.
