Luca Bruno f00440fac5 nixos/x11: start session with dbus-launch
This is needed by most window managers. Desktop environments
usually launch dbus-launch if a session hasn't been started yet
so this shouldn't hurt. The worst it can happen is that one
dbus session will be unused in case it's started twice.

The GDM change is backported from recent gdm.

# This module declares the options to define a *display manager*, the
# program responsible for handling X logins (such as xdm, kdm, gdb, or
# SLiM). The display manager allows the user to select a *session
# type*. When the user logs in, the display manager starts the
# *session script* ("xsession" below) to launch the selected session
# type. The session type defines two things: the *desktop manager*
# (e.g., KDE, Gnome or a plain xterm), and optionally the *window
# manager* (e.g. kwin or twm).
