bus-proxy: never apply policy when sending signals
Unlike dbus-daemon, the bus-proxy does not know the receiver of a broadcast (as the kernel has exclusive access on the bus connections). Hence, and "destination=" matches in dbus1 policies cannot be applied. But kdbus does not place any restrictions on *SENDING* broadcasts, anyway. The kernel never returns EPERM to KDBUS_CMD_SEND if KDBUS_MSG_SIGNAL is set. Instead, receiver policies are checked. Hence, stop checking sender policies for signals in bus-proxy and leave it up to the kernel. This fixes some network-manager bus-proxy issues where NM uses weird dst-based matches against interface-based matches. As we cannot perform dst-based matches, our bus-proxy cannot properly implement this policy.
