Allow systemd libs to be built from source

Summary:
X-link: facebookincubator/zstrong#1066

Changes to enable building systemd libs from source (rather than relying on
system packages i.e. systemd, systemd-devel).

From the FBOSS perspective, this is desirable because statically linking the dependencies into the binaries makes them easier to package without relying on similar state between build and runtime environments.
