AdGuard Home as a system service

1. Reworked working with command-line arguments
2. Added service control actions: install/uninstall/start/stop/status
3. Added log settings to the configuration file
4. Updated the README file

+### Command-line arguments
+
+Here is a list of all available command-line arguments.
+
+```
+$ ./AdGuardHome -h
+Usage:
+
+./AdGuardHome [options]
+
+Options:
+  -c, --config                       path to config file
+  -o, --host                         host address to bind HTTP server on
+  -p, --port                         port to serve HTTP pages on
+  -v, --verbose                      enable verbose output
+  -s, --service                      service control action: status, install, uninstall, start, stop, restart
+  -l, --logfile                      path to the log file. If empty, writes to stdout, if 'syslog' -- system log
+  -h, --help                         print this help
+```
+
+Please note, that you can register AdGuard Home as a system service on Windows, Linux/(systemd | Upstart | SysV), and OSX/Launchd.
+
+* `AdGuardHome -s install` - install as a system service.
+* `AdGuardHome -s uninstall` - uninstall's AdGuard Home service.
+* `AdGuardHome -s start` - starts the service.
+* `AdGuardHome -s stop` - stops the service.
+* `AdGuardHome -s restart` - restarts the service.
+* `AdGuardHome -s status` - shows the current service status.
+
 ### Running without superuser
 
 You can run AdGuard Home without superuser privileges, but you need to either grant the binary a capability (on Linux) or instruct it to use a different port (all platforms).
