As requested by @ruflin after first reporting in beats repo: elastic/beats#481

dpkg -i filebeat_nightly.latest_amd64.deb
dpkg: error processing archive filebeat_nightly.latest_amd64.deb (--install):
parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/control' near line 2 package 'filebeat':
error in 'Version' field string 'nightly151208141331': version number does not start with digit
Errors were encountered while processing:
filebeat_nightly.latest_amd64.deb

Trying to install on Debian 8 64 bit VM. The stable release can be installed, but I would like to test some of the resolved issues in the latest nightly build. Got the filebeat nightlies from here: https://beats-nightlies.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html?prefix=filebeat/

* Tested with Centos7 and Ubuntu 1504
* Does the needed systemctl daemon-reload from a post script
* Copies the unit files in /lib/systemd/system even if systemd
  is not installed. Then the init script is automatically used.

Also fixes bug elastic#40 by putting back the version numbers.
