Subject: [PATCH] bus: When failing to reload client policy, continue iteration

If we have a large number of connections to the bus, and we fail to
reload the policy for one of them (perhaps because its uid no longer
exists in the system user database), previously we would crash, which
is obviously unintended. After the previous commit, we would stop
iteration through the list of client connections, which doesn't seem
great either: one bad connection shouldn't prevent us from reloading
the rest of our state.

Instead, let's distinguish between new connections (where we want
failure to establish a security policy to be fatal), and pre-existing
connections (where the current security policy is presumably good
enough to keep using if we have nothing better). If we're unable to
reload the policy for a pre-existing connection, log a warning and
carry on iterating.
