Tiny Tiny RSS init-script for multiple instances on Debian Wheezy

Well, I have a bunch of Tiny Tiny RSS instances running on my webhost, and I wanted a init-script that starts the update-daemons for all instances.

Now, there’s already a bunch of init scripts for Debian around (1, 2) however none of them were to my liking or did what I wanted it to do. So I ended up (yeah, I know *again*) rewriting them.
