Subject: [PATCH] core: consider service with no start command immediately

 started

The service would always be in state == SERVICE_INACTIVE, but it needs to go

through state == SERVICE_START so that SuccessAction/FailureAction are executed.

(cherry picked from commit ef5ae8e71329e43c277e6d4f983f0c0793047b94)
