There was a problem hiding this comment.
Added this because on later versions, this should not be needed since the datadog-agent-sysprobe service is tied to the datadog-agent service.
Another option would be to automate these steps, but I'm not sure it's worth spending time on it given that this only affects a small number of old versions.

What does this PR do?
Fixes the logic around starting / stopping the system-probe service, with different paths depending on the Agent version:
datadog-agent-sysprobeservice is independent from thedatadog-agentservice and is started / stopped / restarted by the role, depending on thesystem_probe_config.enabledvariabledatadog-agent-sysprobeservice depends ondatadog-agent, therefore only the datadog-agent service needs to be restarted on configuration changes. Thesystem_probe_config.enabledvariable still defines that behavior.network_config.enabledvariable defines if the service should be started or not. Thesystem_probe_config.enabledvariable is still supported for backwards compatibility, but is not recommended in the documentation anymore.Makes sure the role doesn't crash when
system_probe_confighas aNoneor empty value.Additional notes
TODO: update documentation on how to enable system-probe modules depending on the Agent version (link to the public docs).
