busctl monitor
Let's use the newly gained feature of `busctl` and start is as a
Type=notify unit, which should make sure the unit is started only after
`busctl` is on the bus listening for messages.
This should help with a race spotted in CIs, where we continued too
early after starting `busctl monitor` and miss the emitted signals:
