SMF manifest for the Varnish cache

varnish.xml

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<!-- 
  Copy to /opt/custom/smf 
  Assumes Varnish was built on SmartOS with configure --prefix=/opt/local --mandir=/opt/local/man
  By default it looks for a backend at localhost:8000 ... create one quickly with 'python3 -m http.server'

This work is in the public domain.

This could be helpful to some, but I think that we should so a little more before a manifest be considered for inclusion in https://github.com/varnishcache/pkg-varnish-cache such as:

• configuration of parameters as properties
• configure startd to ignore signals and core dumps
• least privileges also for the varnish master process
  I should probably invest some time into this

Oh and thank you 👍
