Public bug reported:
When avahi-daemon is stopped, dbus always revives it.
Steps to reproduce:
1. sudo systemctl stop avahi-daemon.socket
2. sudo systemctl stop avahi-daemon.service
3. ps aux| grep avahi # should return nothing
Currently, dbus revives it right away as shown in syslog:

This automatic revival defeats the purpose of the up script [*] to deactivate
avahi when .local is a regular DNS zone (not mDNS). This also goes against the
principle of least surprise.
