When sd_varlink_connect_url() gets an unknown URL we now
check if there is a `$LIBEXECDIR/varlink-bridges/$scheme`
binary and execute it (with the url as the first arguments).
This makes varlink more flexible as it provides a way to
dynamically add "bridges" in LIBEXECDIR/varlink-bridges/. This is
conceptually similar to the libvarlink `varlink --bridge` command
and allows to e.g. call varlink over http{,s} via e.g. the new
varlink-http-bridge.
With a running varlink-http-bridge [0] one can do:
```console
$ varlinkctl call http://localhost:8080/ws/sockets/io.systemd.Hostname \
io.systemd.Hostname.Describe {}
{
"Hostname" : "top",
...
```
