Before Upgrading from v0.3.x

v0.4 does not support running wsl-vpnkit using wsl.exe -d wsl-vpnkit service wsl-vpnkit start.

A systemd service file is provided to help you setup a systemd service in your distro to run wsl-vpnkit in the background. This change was made since systemd is the official Microsoft-supported way to run background tasks in WSL 2.
