Remove the redundant out-of-date dbus.socket symlink

Previously, Lennart Poettering submitted two dbus.socket files
for Systemd on Jul-09-2010 as follows.
* title: systemd: install systemd socket and service file by default
* patches: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/dbus/dbus/commit/?
		id=bffc52a38536dfe400a6b5219ee44465c9b817b9 )

Recently, i checked two dbus.socket symlinks at /usr/lib/systemd/system/
from fedora 20.
fedora20#> find  /usr/lib/systemd/system -name dbus.socket
/usr/lib/systemd/system/dbus.socket
/usr/lib/systemd/system/dbus.target.wants/dbus.socket (*)
 --> We don't need this directory including the dbus.socket (symlink file)
/usr/lib/systemd/system/sockets.target.wants/dbus.socket

There same two symbolic files redundantly in /lib/systemd/system/ folder.
Systemd supports /usr/lib/systemd/system/sockets.target.wants/ to manage
socket files is called *.socket. Actually, we don't need
"/lib/systemd/system/dbus.target.wants/" directory including
the dbus.socket (symlink file). Above all, there are not "dbus.target" file
in "/lib/systemd/system/" directory
for /usr/lib/systemd/system/dbus.target.wants/ rule.

Let's remove unnecessary ./dbus.target.wants/ folder including dbus.socket

Lennart, is it your intention that dbus.target is obsolete and should go away?

Answered in person: yes.

Fixed in git for 1.11.0.
