I think this:

https://github.com/openbmc/entity-manager/blob/master/service_files/xyz.openbmc_project.EntityManager.service

and the other service file are the only ones started by basic.target.

I think moving to multi-user.target is a good plan for moving the
service files into the repos -- instead of having it be a configurable
variable.  Just to simplify it.
