Do not patch out display-manager.service alias

Luca Boccassi requested to merge bluca/gdm:alias into debian/latest

This is needed so that presets can enable the manager, and also as a pre-greeter synchronization point (eg: for firstboot services that provision users). The custom debconf-based mechanism does not conflict with this, as it does the same thing: create and remove symlinks.

Other managers already use it and leave it in place:

Closes: #1025349
