seatd: Remove runtime socket path configuration
Configurable socket paths exist mainly to facilitate multiple parallel
seatd instances. However, the only valid use-case for running multiple
instances of seatd is testing during development, which can just as well
be done by changing SEATD_DEFAULTPATH at compile-time for test builds.
Remove the command-line argument in seatd for runtime configuration of
socket path, hardcode the socket path in seatd-launch, and change seatd
unlink/chmod/chown code to not run when started by seatd-launch.
This means that seatd-launch will now fail to start seatd if another
seatd instance is already running. The unlink code still runs when seatd
is started normally to assist in system crash recovery, but this may be
removed later if we deem it unnecessary.
