logind: handle closing sessions over daemon restarts
It may happen that you have several sessions with the same VT: - Open a session c1 which leaves some processes around, and log out. The session will stay in State=closing and become Active=no. - Log back in on the same VT, get a new session "c2" which is State=active and Active=yes. When restarting logind after that, the first session that matches the current VT becomes Active=yes, which will be c1; c2 thus is Active=no and does not get the usual polkit/device ACL privileges. Restore the "closing" state in session_load(), to avoid treating all restored sessions as State=active. In seat_active_vt_changed(), prefer active sessions over closing ones if more than one session matches the current VT. Finally, fix the confusing comment in session_load() and explain it a bit better. https://launchpad.net/bugs/1415104
