Merge d7e58758a6 into 52b0351a15

Initialize the start of the system-wide idle time with the time logind was
initialized and not with the start of the Unix epoch. This means that systemd
will not repport a unreasonable long idle time (around 54 years at the time of
writing this), especially at in the early boot, while no login manager session,
e.g,. gdm, had a chance to provide a more accurate start of the idle period.

Fixes #35163
