shutdown_clients is replaced by shutdown_clients_timeout, which also allows
everything in between its two endpoints: a reload can keep the existing
sessions running for a while, e.g. to take new SSL certificates into use
without disconnecting anyone.

Also documents the new service type=client, "doveadm reload --kick-timeout",
the generation and kill_time columns in "doveadm process status" and
"doveadm service status", and "doveadm service status -a".
The setting moved into service_settings. The name inside a service { .. }
block is unchanged.
