[Bug 1508697] [NEW] Wily: /var/lib/dbus/machine-id is symlink on desktop, file on server

Public bug reported:

If you do a Wily desktop install, /var/lib/dbus/machine-id is a symlink
to /etc/machine-id.

If you do a Wily server install, /var/lib/dbus/machine-id is a file
containing the same value as /etc/machine-id.

Minor issue, but still a weird inconsistency between Ubuntu desktop and
server.

Thanks!
