plugin: start a system bus by default
Finit speaks D-Bus itself now and claims org.finit on the system bus when it finds one, but nothing in a default build ever brings that bus up. The plugin that does was opt-in, so the built-in support sat idle unless the integrator knew to ask for both halves. Defaulting it on is only reasonable if the result stays the admin's to change, and a service registered from C through conf_save_service() is not: it lands in the run path where it cannot be overridden or emptied out. So the daemon moves to 20-dbus.conf and its directories to tmpfiles.d/dbus.conf, the same way hotplug and every other daemon we ship them for. The plugin keeps only what has to look at the running system, the stale pidfile and the machine UUID. Those directories are no longer chowned to messagebus. tmpfiles.d skips a line whose user does not exist rather than falling back, so the plugin's messagebus/dbus/root ladder has no equivalent there, and dbus-daemon binds its socket before dropping privileges anyway. The plugin already bows out where there is no dbus-daemon installed, so systems that never wanted a bus are unaffected, and --disable-dbus-plugin is there for those that have one and would still rather init left it alone.

* `--disable-dbus`: Opt out of Finit's built-in D-Bus support, enabled by

default. See [D-Bus Integration](dbus.md) for what it provides. Not to

* `--enable-alsa-utils-plugin`: Enable the optional `alsa-utils.so` sound plugin.

|

* `--enable-dbus-plugin`: Enable the optional D-Bus `dbus.so` plugin, which
|

launches `dbus-daemon` at boot. Unrelated to the built-in bus, see
|

`--disable-dbus` above.
|

* `--disable-dbus-plugin`: Drop the `dbus.so` plugin, which launches
|

`dbus-daemon` at boot. Enabled by default; the plugin does nothing on
|

a system that has no `dbus-daemon` installed, so opting out is only

needed to keep init from starting a bus on a system that has one.

Unrelated to the built-in bus, see `--disable-dbus` above.

* `--enable-resolvconf-plugin`: Enable the `resolvconf.so` optional plugin.
