    d/control: Drop explicit dependency on dbus
    
    The dbus binary package provides the system bus, which is not used here.
    Instead, rhythmbox does use the session bus for MPRIS, MediaServer2, general
    single-instance GApplication behaviour, and some custom IPC too.
    
    Use the default-dbus-session-bus and dbus-session-bus virtual packages to
    allow for alternative dbus implementations like dbus-broker.
