Runscript: allow extra_commands to be run in chroots
The commands defined in the extra_commands variable do not depend on whether the service is stopped or started, so it is valid to run them in chroot environments. Also, add a note to the runscript man page about the commands in extra_commands being able to run whether or not the service is started.
