It's already a separate library independent from the rest of the
systemd eco-system ;)

(OK, it's a single library with other parts included, but the sd-bus
part is the biggest by far, and also sd-bus uses sd-event and sd-128
internally, so they'd be required anyway. The other parts are smaller,
and matter more because of dependencies they pull in than because of
the code size itself. But it is possible to compile libsystemd w/o
some features, notably without encryption, to save size and deps.
I don't think there's any significant barrier to using libsystemd
on non-systemd systems, except for psychological issues.)
