Bug description:
  Unity-settings-daemon still depends on gnome-settings-daemon schemas.
  It is undesired as it requires to modify code in all unity related
  components when upstream drops some gsettings schemas.

  gnome-settings-daemon > 3.33 drops/modify media-keys schemas in an
  undesired way that it can't easily be reverted. Keyboard & mouse
  schemas are modified and unity-settings-daemon is crashing. So it's
  better unity uses it's own schema as suggested by Laney. We will of-
  course keep using settings migration (org.gnome.settings-daemon->
  org.gnome.desktop) wherever possible.

  Since this is a huge task it can be achieved gradually.

  1) Ubuntu 19.10

  - Port media keys to use com.canonical.unity.settings-daemon

  - u-s-d will still use org.gnome.settings-daemon name in dbus

  - u-s-d will still respects activation toggle in org.gnome.settings-
  daemon

  - everything else remains the same

  2) Ubuntu 20.04

  - Port rest of plugins to use com.canonical.unity.settings-daemon

  - u-s-d will still use org.gnome.settings-daemon name in dbus

  - Activation toggle key will now use com.canonical.unity.settings-
  daemon

  - Everything else will remain the same
