journald: add configuration option for enabling/disabling audit during journald startup
Let's make it optional whether auditing is enabled at journald start-up or not. Note that this only controls whether audit is enabled/disabled in the kernel. Either way we'll still collect the audit data if it is generated, i.e. if some other tool enables it, we'll collect it. Fixes: #959
