Summary0000337: [RFE] start using os-release SUPPORT_END=YYYY-MM-DD
DescriptionFollowing https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2105402 . Currently RHEL systemd doesn't recognize this metadata, but it is still handy to have a unified way to check for EOL date from the OS itself.

Description of problem:
Systemd has added a field to os-release called SUPPORT_END which can be useful for folks to generate automated reminders of systems nearing their end of support. Starting with systemd 252 the system can use this metadata directly.

A similar fix would be welcome in AlmaLinux 9 as well.

With https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/rpms/systemd/-/merge_requests/59 merged into CentOS Stream, I'd love to have this ready for 9.2
