    rc: improve NAME_setup handling
    
    Reload is used for service reconfiguration as well
    and lacks a NAME_prepend-like mechanism so it makes
    sense to extend the NAME_reload hook into this
    action.
    
    precmd may use configuration checks and blocks setup
    from doing its designated work (e.g. nginx).  In moving
    the invoke of the setup script in front allows us to
    provide custom scripts for config file generation and
    fixing prior to precmd checking configuration integrity.
    
    Also introduce _run_rc_setup to separate the launcher
    from the main one.  Let it run correctly in the case
    of restart_precmd and block further execution as
    would be the case in start due to the internal plumbing
    of restart being split into calling stop and start
    afterwards.
