So, I looked closer and actually frr init script does not need
start-stop-daemon tool, it is enough to just call /usr/sbin/frrinit.sh
{start|stop}. So I can pick S01syslogd as template but w/o using
start-stop-daemon and directly call frrinit.sh, because frr handles
starting/stopping of its daemons by itself.
