The systemd service file that ships with Elasticsearch installs on systemd-based systems contains a suggestion for setting LimitMEMLOCK if the user wants to enable bootstrap.memory_lock. However, this setting this in the installed service file goes against best practices for working with systemd, and goes against our existing documentation for how to set this. Therefore, we should not have this suggestion in the service file otherwise users might be led to think they should edit it there.
