Subject: [PATCH] dbus: propagate errors from bus_init_system() and

 bus_init_api()

The aim of this change is to make sure that we properly log about all

D-Bus connection problems. After all, we only ever attempt to get on the

bus if dbus-daemon is around, so any failure in the process should be

treated as an error.

bus_init_system() is only called from bus_init() and in

bus_init() we have a bool flag which governs whether we should attempt

to connect to the system bus or not.

Hence if we are in bus_init_system() then it is clear we got called from

a context where connection to the bus is actually required and therefore

shouldn't be treated as the "best effort" type of operation. Same

applies to bus_init_api().

We make use of those error codes in bus_init() and log high level

message that informs admin about what is going on (and is easy to spot

and makes sense to an end user).

Also "retrying later" bit is actually a lie. We won't retry unless we

are explicitly told to reconnect via SIGUSR1 or re-executed. This is

because bus_init() is always called from the context where dbus-daemon

is already around and hence bus_init() won't be called again from

unit_notify().

Fixes #7782

(cherry picked from commit dc7118ba094415d8de3812881cc5cbe2e3cac73e)

Resolves: #1541061
