Back off also if IBus on Budgie

Bug description:
[Impact]
This is a follow-up of bug #1893551, where we stopped im-config from
interfering in case of a GNOME desktop. Even if Budgie uses the same
applicable GNOME components, we didn't change it for Budgie at that
time since IBus input methods were not reliably reflected in the
Keyboard Layout applet.
However, that issue has been fixed now. Also, the most common ibus
crash type is now Budgie related:
https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/f0690c64c769b06c2ce0513667bd7a52f53ebd27
We have reasons to hope that letting im-config back off also for
Budgie will reduce the number of crashes as has already happened for
standard Ubuntu (see comment #2 at bug #1879958). At least we have
nothing to lose by trying...
[Test case]
I'm not aware of a way to reproduce the crashes, and thus can't
confirm in advance that the proposed upload makes a difference.
However, we should confirm that IBus input methods can be used
smoothly on Budgie:
* Install Budgie in a VM
* Install the version of im-config from -proposed
* Install ibus-libpinyin
* Add the Keyboard Layout applet in Budgie Desktop Settings
* Re-login
* Add Intelligent Pinyin to the input sources in Settings
* Confirm that switching between the input sources works
without problems and that you can input Chinese characters
[Regression risk]
When used, im-config does two things: It launches an IM framework and
sets some IM related variables. The test case serves the purpose of
confirming that those things are properly accomplished without im-
config in case of IBus. So given a successful verification the
regression risk due to the proposed change should be low.
