Follow-up for 6906c028e8
The mentioned commit uses access() to check if varlink socket
already exists in the filesystem, but that isn't sufficient.

After this commit, the set up of varlink_server is effectively
split into two steps. manager_varlink_init_system(), which is
called after deserialization, would no longer skip listening
even if Manager.varlink_server is in place, but actually
check if we're listening on desired sockets.
Then, manager_deserialize() can be switched back to using
manager_setup_varlink_server().
