The “extreme hills” release.

Dependencies:
• If systemd support is enabled, libsystemd-journal is now required.
Enhancements:
• When activating a non-systemd service under systemd, annotate its
stdout/stderr with its bus name in the Journal. Known limitation:
because the socket is opened before forking, the process will still be
logged as if it had dbus-daemon's process ID and user ID.
(fd.o #68559, Chengwei Yang)
• Document more configuration elements in dbus-daemon(1)
(fd.o #69125, Chengwei Yang)
Fixes:
• Don't leak string arrays or fds if dbus_message_iter_get_args_valist()
unpacks them and then encounters an error (fd.o #21259, Chengwei Yang)
• If compiled with libaudit, retain CAP_AUDIT_WRITE so we can write
disallowed method calls to the audit log, fixing a regression in 1.7.6
(fd.o #49062, Colin Walters)
• path_namespace='/' in match rules incorrectly matched nothing; it
now matches everything. (fd.o #70799, Simon McVittie)
