Example Nginx & PHP-FPM systemd service configs

A set of really basic systemd configs for starting Nginx and PHP-FPM on system boot.

• Will ensure Nginx web server has started before kicking off PHP-FPM process.
• PHP-FPM pid file placed in /run/php7, PHP7 PHP-FPM config at /etc/php7.
• Based on usage with Ubuntu 16.04LTS.

Both scripts placed in /lib/systemd/system and enabled by the following:

$ sudo systemctl enable nginx.service
$ sudo systemctl enable php-fpm.service
