RFE: salt.states.service.configured

[damon-atkins]

Description of Issue/Question

Their needs to be a state to configure a service, which check to see if the service is configured as expected and if not changes it. i.e. salt.states.service.configured which supports windows, systemd, solaris. i.e. the platforms which do do use init.d/rc.d

It needs to accept a list of params which are common across platforms, and also a extra platform specific items.

Steps to Reproduce Issue

Windows Example

module.run:
- name: service.create
- m_name: ServiceName
- bin_path: d:{{environmentbase}}\apptier\service\bin\WindowsService.exe
- display_name: TestService
- start_type: auto
- description: Windows Service for {{environment}} Instance"

This errors if already exists. i.e. trying to do something which should be implemented in a state.
