    DBus: introduce virDBusIsServiceEnabled

Made the cgroups code fallback to non-systemd based setup
when dbus is not running. It was too big a hammer though,
as it did not check what error code was received when the
dbus connection failed. Thus it silently ignored serious
errors from dbus such as "too many client connections",
which should always be treated as fatal.

We only want to ignore errors if the dbus unix socket does
not exist, or if nothing is listening on it.
