Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  Users running systems which don't include the python3-systemd package (like in minimal installations) will see errors when executing ubuntu-advantage.service.
  This happens because of a call to systemd.daemon.notify() in the python code. The solution is to remove this call and set the service type to 'simple' instead.

  [ Test Case ]

  For the SRU verification, when the package is in proposed:
  On an Ubuntu machine:
  - uninstall the python3-systemd package
  - try to run ubuntu-advantage.service, and see it fail
  - install the package from proposed
  - see that ubuntu-advantage.service runs fine

  Results from executing these steps will be added to the bug once done.

  Besides that, the ubuntu-advantage-tools CI includes many acceptance
  tests which cover possible regressions on this change - those will be
  executed as part of the verification of
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-advantage-
  tools/+bug/2038461

  [ Where problems could occur ]

  Using type=simple for the u-a.service tells systemd that the service
  is executed, unblocking chain dependencies for instance, as soon as it
  is called. It will behave this way even if the binary is missing, or
  if there is a runtime error on the service.

  - from our internal perspective, it is fine - we have integration
  tests to cover functionality and logging to debug if something goes
  bad, which we do not expect. We were just initializing logging before
  notifying, so not using type=notify does not hurt us.

  - from external perspective, no systemd services should be relying on
  u-a.service, and the impact of the service not running is immediately
  perceivable, so bugs can be opened.
