Gentoo Portage overlay for ArangoDB

/etc/layman/layman.cfg add:

overlays: ...
          https://github.com/gbevan/portage-arangodb-overlay/raw/master/repository.xml

run:

layman -f -a gbevan-arangodb
emerge -v --ask arangodb

to start (systemd):

systemctl enable arangodb
systemctl start arangodb

(pre-systemd init scripts are also provided - let me know if you have any issues/fixes)

layman -s gbevan-arangodb
emerge -v -u arangodb

Ensure all active connections, from applications and arangosh etc, are shutdown/closed before restarting:

systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl restart arangodb

Check the logs:

journalctl -b -u arangodb

If you get message like:

FATAL Database 'partout' needs upgrade. Please start the server with the --upgrade option

then:

arangod --uid arangodb --gid arangodb --upgrade
(there may be an upgrade option via systemctl... maybe...)

When releasing new ebuild, run:
```
  ebuild arangodb-2.8.x.ebuild manifest
```
for your new ebuild version, then commit/push.
