Add OpenRC service backend #31

Description

@Pectics

Context

Roadmap item imported from PLAN_REQUEST.md and PLAN_RESPONSE.md for v1.1+ — Post-v1 Backlog.

Upstream references

Upstream decision

  • Ported
  • Reimplemented
  • Deferred
  • Rejected

Reason: Deferred until after v1.0 because it expands the service-backend matrix.

Scope

  • Evaluate OpenRC service lifecycle after systemd backend stabilizes.
  • Design backend extension and add OpenRC integration tests before declaring support.

Acceptance criteria

  • The scope above is implemented or documented in issue-linked PRs.
  • Relevant upstream references are reviewed before implementation starts.
  • Tests are added, or the PR explicitly explains why this is documentation-only.
  • Documentation is updated, or the PR explicitly explains why no docs changed.
  • Migration impact, security impact, and rollback behavior are evaluated.

Out of scope

  • Work explicitly listed outside v1.0 in the roadmap remains deferred unless this issue is in v1.1+ — Post-v1 Backlog.
  • No GitHub Project board, branch protection change, local commit, or repository file edit is part of this import pass.

Dependencies

Security and rollback considerations

Apply Mihoto's safety rule for this issue: updates, migrations, service changes, TUN/DNS changes, and credential handling must be explicit, validated, auditable, and recoverable. Secrets and subscription URLs must be redacted from logs and issue artifacts.
