Add SetHostname(), SetStaticHostname(), SetPrettyHostname(), SetIconName(), SetChassis(), SetDeployment() and SetLocation() to the io.systemd.Hostname Varlink interface, mirroring the existing D-Bus methods of the same names. Each takes a single nullable string "newValue" (null clears/resets the value; the method name itself makes clear what the value is) plus the usual allowInteractiveAuthentication polkit input, and applies the same validation, polkit actions and /etc/hostname resp. /etc/machine-info persistence as its D-Bus counterpart. The five machine-info setters share a common helper. The hostname validator is reused from the D-Bus path, translating its INVALID_ARGS error into a Varlink invalid-parameter error. Being reachable over the socket-activated Varlink socket, these work in early boot before the system bus is up.
