heads up: node export service file has been renamed

[Barry Scott]

I just updated one of my servers and it failed to reboot.

The reason is that I had:

    Requires=node_exporter.service

in the default target and the update had installed a change to
the name of the node exporter service. It is not called
prometheus-node-exporter.service

Having been bitten I'm changing to use:

    Wants=prometheus-node-exporter.service

Just incase it changes again.

Opsss. now called.

Also watch out for prometheus.service changes as well. The way that you config it is
all changed.

seems to have been addressed already in
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/golang-github-prometheus-node-exporter...
(thanks!)
This package is also built for EPEL and this change is definitely
unexpected there.
