Colin Guthrie 51dfddc2cc units: Rename systemd-udev.service to systemd-udevd.service
This naming convention is more inline with other systemd daemon
unit names (systemd-logind.service, systemd-localed.service etc)

The companion .socket units have also been renamed, however the
-trigger and -settle units keep their current name as these are
not directly related to daemon process itself.
