2018-11-15supervise-daemon: make the pidfile an implementation detailWilliam Hubbs
The pidfile of the supervisor doesn't need to be adjustable by the service script. It is only used so the supervisor can stop itself when the --stop option is used.
2018-10-23supervise-daemon: add health checksWilliam Hubbs
Health checks are a way to monitor a service and make sure it stays healthy. If a service is not healthy, it will be automatically restarted after running the unhealthy() function to clean up.

2017-09-06add retry option to supervise-daemonWilliam Hubbs
The --retry option for supervise-daemon defines how the supervisor will attempt to stop the child process it is monitoring. It is defined when the supervisor is started since stopping the supervisor just sends a signal to the active supervisor. This fixes #160.

This fixes #151.
2017-05-10supervise-daemon:create multiple options from --respawn-limitWilliam Hubbs
This creates --respawn-delay, --respawn-max and --respawn-period. It was suggested that it would be easier to follow if the options were separated. This is for #126.
2017-05-09supervise-daemon: add a --respawn-limit optionWilliam Hubbs
Allow limiting the number of times supervise-daemon will attempt to respawn a daemon once it has died to prevent infinite respawning. Also, set a reasonable default limit (10 times in a 5 second period). This is for issue #126.
