Revert "systemctl: allow --marker with start/stop too"

This reverts commit 351b4dd123.

I'm pretty sure we should not create more of these multiplexer
interfaces, which in this specific also leads to a fair bit of
confusion: start/stop/reload-or-restart --marked all enqueue
all job types.

Instead, a dedicated verb will be introduced in later commits.
