README: Update now that it is no longer a daemon

-- Why is bootupd a daemon?
-
-It's not, really.  The name was intended to be "bootloader-upDater"
-not "bootloader-updater-Daemon"; the choice of a "d" suffix is
-in retrospect probably too confusing.
-
-At a technical level, yes there is a socket-activated systemd service
-which will spawn a `bootupd.service`.  However - the service will
-*very quickly* auto exit.  There's nothing long-running, so it's
-not really a daemon.
-
-The rationale behind this design is:
-
-- Using a systemd service provides a robust natural "locking"
-  mechanism.
-- Using a systemd service ensures that critical logging metadata
-  always consistently ends up in the systemd journal, not e.g.
-  a transient client SSH connection.
-- systemd services can easily have sandboxing applied, and
-  while bootupd is obviously privileged we can still make use
-  of some of this.
-- Ultimately, we do probably want a non-CLI API (whether that's
-  DBus or Cap'n Proto or varlink or something else).  Having
-  a socket (without a defined stable API) is preparatory work for that.
+- Is bootupd a daemon?
+
+It was never a daemon. The name was intended to be "bootloader-upDater" not
+"bootloader-updater-Daemon". The choice of a "d" suffix is in retrospect
+probably too confusing.
+
+bootupd used to have an internally-facing `bootupd.service` and
+`bootupd.socket` systemd units that acted as a locking mechanism. The service
+would *very quickly* auto exit. There was nothing long-running, so it was not
+really a daemon.
+
+bootupd now uses `systemd-run` instead to guarantee the following:
+
+- It provides a robust natural "locking" mechanism.
+- It ensures that critical logging metadata always consistently ends up in the
+  systemd journal, not e.g.  a transient client SSH connection.
+- It benefits from the sandboxing options available for systemd units, and
+  while bootupd is obviously privileged we can still make use of some of this.
+- If we want a non-CLI API (whether that's DBus or Cap'n Proto or varlink or
+  something else), we will create an independent daemon with a stable API for
+  this specific need.
