dbus: disable all but EXTERNAL D-Bus authentication for private sockets

We use a private D-Bus socket for example for DHCP clients to report back
at unix:path=/var/run/NetworkManager/private-dhcp.

By default, gdbus will enable the authentication mechanisms EXTERNAL
and DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1. However, DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 requires a /root/.dbus-keyrings
directory, which is not available to NetworkManager as it is started with
ProtectHome=read-only. And writing to /root would be a bad idea anyway.

This leads to a warning

  NetworkManager[10962]: Error adding entry to keyring: Error creating directory “/root/.dbus-keyrings”: Read-only file system

Disable all but the EXTERNAL mechanism.
