  That a symlink causing apache httpd to be started on boot.

  Internal stuff, ignore.

  This is the only file that matters.

  This is some Debian stuff.

  That's one way correct way to do it. To see other, check httpd.service
as shipped by Fedora: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/httpd/tree/master

  First of all, you got correct installation by installing distribution
package.  You can stop there.
  If you want to do the work, anyway, do the following:
  – read man systemd.unit, systemd.service, maybe some systemd tutorials
  – devise your own service unit file for apache httd; you have two
    examples already
  – in your package, install the unit into /usr/lib/systemd/system/
