  Support dbus runtime relocation

Bug description:
  For example, when running in a snap.

  I ran into this while testing a unity8 desktop session snap.  Session
  services were being dbus-activated, but dbus was running the hardcoded
  paths in the session desktop files.  Which weren't pointed into the
  snap.

  DBus has support for relocating those paths, but it only does so on
  Windows.

  I've added a patch to support $DBUS_ROOT on Unix and relocate paths as
  needed.  I've linked the upstream bug here.  We may want to consider
  patching Ubuntu while we wait for it to land upstream.

  I've attached the patch here too.
