fix(deploy): WorkingDirectory= prefix - so ExecStartPre can mount the overlay
systemd applies WorkingDirectory= to every Exec line including ExecStartPre.
With the merged dir not yet existing at boot time (the volatile overlay
mount has been wiped), the chdir into runtime/%i/merged/left4dead2 fails
with status=200/CHDIR before ExecStartPre can run the mount helper.

The `-` prefix makes chdir failure non-fatal: ExecStartPre runs in the
unit's home (cwd doesn't matter for the mount helper); ExecStart re-applies
WorkingDirectory once the mount has landed and chdirs successfully.

Companion to commit 519567e (which added the ExecStartPre mount + helper
idempotency but didn't account for the WorkingDirectory ordering).
