Fedora also has one, not upstream from what I can see. This also doe more
restrictions on what it can see.
/usr/lib/systemd/system/mlocate-updatedb.service
[Unit]
Description=Update a database for mlocate
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/libexec/mlocate-run-updatedb

IOSchedulingClass=2
IOSchedulingPriority=7

/etc/systemd/system/timers.target.wants/mlocate-updatedb.timer
[Unit]

The last bit would be to take the cronjob line from logrotate (if you want
compatibility from systems without system):
# skip in favour of systemd timer
if [ -d /run/systemd/system ]; then
exit 0
fi
