Expand upon daemon setup with full module - either another or my own

I was thinking about turning my work on the ummon-server cli into a daemon library but then I found many other libraries doing the same thing.
- https://github.com/frodwith/node-init - Like it for a number of reasons but its Coffeescript
- https://github.com/iamcal/service.js - is the simplest and most approachable. Hasn't been touched in 2 years though
- https://github.com/niegowski/node-daemonize2 - is the nicest IMO and is actively being developed
- https://github.com/coreybutler/node-linux - is also nice but I don't like some of the decisions
What if the ummon-server command stays dumb -- all it does is start the server with some options passed in -- and you include an example SysVinit script (like this one) or some possible ways to run ummon-server as a daemon. The point being that there are all kinds of ways to daemonize things and I'd rather not be opinionated about it.
Not happening! Closing this out as we're not doing a full featured cli tool for the server. See #48
