Merge lp:~jamesodhunt/upstart/use-session-init-for-init-checkconf into lp:upstart

[James Hunt]

Making the Session Init connect to the D-Bus session bus on request ('initctl notify-dbus-address') breaks init-checkconf.

This branch simplifies init-checkconf to not rely on D-bus, but instead spawn a Session Init.

I'll raise a follow-on MP that will add tests for the Upstart scripts to ensure they are not inadvertently broken in the future.
