Wanted a refresher on how to set up s6 instanced services with s6-rc, but
the s6-rc-compile documentation reads:
> Optional directories named instance and instances. These will be copied
verbatim into the generated service directory. They are used internally by
some s6 tools; using them for your own purposes is not recommended - you
should ignore them and use the data directory instead.
Does this mean using the s6 instances feature is not recommended? Are there
plans to revamp the source format for templated services?
