A deployment's ErrorDocument-covered downtime window looked dead: Apache's
default 502/503/504 error page, or a hung request, while instance-update
briefly restarts the systemd unit. init --systemd now also writes a static
werkator-maintenance.html next to the generated .htaccess, and the .htaccess
maps a refused connection straight to it — served by Apache alone, no
change needed to Werkator itself since it is exactly the process that is
down.
