pid1: by default make user units inherit their umask from the user manager

This patch changes the way user managers set the default umask for the units it
manages.

Indeed one can expect that if user manager's umask is redefined through PAM
(via /etc/login.defs or pam_umask), all its children including the units it
spawns have their umask set to the new value.

Hence make user units inherit their umask value from their parent instead of
the hard coded value 0022 but allow them to override this value via their unit
file.

Note that reexecuting managers with 'systemctl daemon-reexec' after changing
UMask= has no effect. To take effect managers need to be restarted with
'systemct restart' instead. This behavior was already present before this
patch.

Fixes #6077.
