dbus: rauc: implement forced polling via update channel files

Users managing a fleet of devices with custom-built update bundles and
update channel may want to automatically enable update polling and
automatic installation of updates without having to do so explicitly via
the web ui. (At least we at Pengutronix do).

Enable this usecase by adding optional `force_polling` and
`force_auto_install` config options to the update channel definition
files.
