I'm really not at all a fan of 'bool fatal' like args to control
error reporting.

I think in this case we should have a

   bool virDBusHasSystemBus(void)

method, which calls can use to determine if dbus is available. If
not available then they can take a separate codepath as needed.

This avoids the need to try something we expect to fail and then
try to discard the errors.

This would make the first patch uneccessary too.
