dbus and systemd activation - take 2
This replaces #7433. The improvements are:
1) Install the systemd user service in the proper directory depending
on if it's a 'user' install or a 'system' install. This is controlled
either by using the `--system` build flag (as most packages will) or by
the `-Dsystem-package` flag.
2) Add the absolute path to the `ghostty` binary in the application
file, the DBus service, and the systemd user service. This is done so
that they do not depend on `ghostty` being in the `PATH` of whatever
is launching Ghostty. That `PATH` is not necessarily the same as the
`PATH` in a user shell (especially for DBus activation and systemd user
services).
3) Adjust the DBus bus name that is expected by the system depending on
the optimization level that Ghostty is compiled with.
