Init system detection🐛

[LinuxMeow]

Describe the bug

This is not an affecting issue for the functionality nor it is high priority issue or anything I just thought of adding it as suggestion here.

Installing cloudflared on Gentoo Linux works as intended and expected, especially on systemd installation.

However there is a problem with open-rc version of Gentoo Linux.

It incorrectly detects init system as SysV which causes

doas cloudflared --config ~/.cloudflared.config.yaml service install

to fail cause it is trying to execute service command instead of rc-service.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Configure:

• Gentoo Linux install with open-rc init

2. Run:

• doas cloudflared --config ~/.cloudflared/config.yaml service install (or sudo instead of doas)

3. See error:

• Detected init system SysV
• Unable to execute service command not in $PATH

If it's an issue with Cloudflare Tunnel:

4. Tunnel ID : Irrelevant (correctly configured)
5. cloudflared config: Irrelevant (correctly configured)

Expected behavior

Cloudflared service install detects open-rc init

Cloudflare detects proper open-rc init system and tries to execute rc-service command accordingly instead of service.

Environment and versions

• OS: [Gentoo Linux (open-rc init)]
• Architecture: [amd64 (x86_64)]
• Version: [2022.12.13 (latest git pull as of the time of install)]

Logs and errors

Errors as described previously.

It doesn't affect the function of the tunnel itself, and it is also possible to manually install service without cloudflared command.

• Importance: Very low
• Affected functionality: Only automatic service install
