Update systemd example readme file (#1663)
The readme file does not mention the need to create a folder named
/var/lib/node_exporter/textfile_collector as a step. Lack of this
folder results errors for node_exporter service which is visible
in systemd status output. These errors possibly harmless but it is
not good to have them still.
$ sudo systemctl status node_exporter
