So far we'd issue a warning (before this series, just in the logs on the server
side, and before this commit, on stderr on the caller's side), but return
success. It seems that successfull return was introduced by mistake in
aa0f357fd8 (my fault :( ), which was supposed to
be a refactoring without a functional change. I think it's better to fail,
because if enablement fails, the user will most likely want to diagnose the
issue.
Note that we still do partial enablement, as far as that is possible. So if
e.g. we have [Install] Alias=foo.service foobar, we'll create the symlink
'foo.service', but not 'foobar', since that's not a valid unit name. We'll
print info about the action taken, and about 'foobar' being invalid, and return
failure.
