Spec: document what auto-starting is, and recommend it

System Internals / DBus - Simon McVittie [collabora.co.uk] - 22 November 2016 05:24 UTC

For something we recommend, that is important enough to have its own header flag, it doesn't have very good documentation. Redo the text to suggest that auto-starting is the normal thing and StartServiceByName is the oddity. That's usually a good principle to follow, since it dodges time-of-check/time-of-use issues, and the method call that you presumably wanted to do needs to handle errors anyway.
