Fix for vmware installs on voidlinux runit and vmmon module

vmware-void-fix

#!/bin/bash

# must run as root
if [ $UID != 0 ]; then
  echo "You must be root."
  exit 0
fi

# soft link vmware's init.d scripts to void's runit directory
ln -s /etc/init.d/vmware* /etc/runit/

# create runit service for vmware and vmware-workstation-server
echo -e '#!/bin/bash\nexec /etc/runit/vmware start' > /etc/sv/vmware
echo -e '#!/bin/bash\nexec /etc/runit/vmware-workstation-server start' > /etc/sv/vmware-workstation-server

# soft link the service to /var
ln -s /etc/sv/vmware* /var/service

# start the vmware services to populate the proper files
sv start vmware
sv start vmware-workstation-server

# fix vmmon
cd /tmp
cp /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/vmmon.tar .

Also you seem to be contributor to the void-packages, would you like adding vmware as a restricted package into it, so can be easily installed using the xbps-src script?

Package request: void-linux/void-packages#33557

This isn't the correct approach at all. vmware-modconfig will still look for systemctl and Void doesn't have SystemD. Instead, create a symbolic link in /usr/bin with systemctl name.
