man: expand description of lingering and KillUserProcesses setting
The description in the man page was wrong, KillUserProcesses does
not kill all processes of the user. Describe what the setting
does, and also add links between the relavant sections of the
manual.
Also, add an extensive example which shows how to launch screen
in the background.
